The treaty calls for a reduction of emissions to 7% below 1990 levels, a pretty huge cutback. The US Dept of Energy study found that gasoline would go up by as much as 53% and electricity by as much as 83% because of the taxes necessary to meet that target. I personally don't want to pay $2.50 or $3 a gallon for gas so the Chinese can pollute as much as they want...........:disgust:
Well, that would likely be true if taxes were the only method used to acheive the goal.
And all jobs would go to china and india where no regulations exist. Doing this would solve little, other than to move where the pollution is being generated.
Yes, that would have to b addressed.
Which kyoto does not.
No, it doesn't, but why does it have to? It is a trade issue.
So china's massive pollution and brown cloud is not a envirmental issue, it is trade issue?
