#2 I think you mean "shifting toward sources" not "shiting". But this just reinforces what I have always believed that Kyoto is nothing more than a Ponzi scheme to transfer wealth. What the Schemers didn't count on was the US not joining and energy intensive industries moving to 3rd world countries. Bugwits.

#3 European Climate Exchange---Whatta joke! Typical bureaucratic scheme. Thought it through, but the smart people will always find the weakness of the Kyoto Car-bohn Credits scheme. It went through the signatories because it felt good. Not because of good science. Let it die a quick death and maybe the world can get on to business that makes sense.

#5 "Energy intensive industries are moving to places where there are no CO2 emission limits. Governments are cheating. Energy consumption is shifting toward sources that aren't measured under Kyoto."

Well, duh!

Particularly the "governments are cheating" part.

In other news, water is still wet.
