Funny you should mention the unprecedented heat wave in France, many feel
that it is a symptom of global warming, and of course the US refused to
sign the Kyoto protocol.

Have you ever bothered to ask why the US refused to sign the Kyoto? I'm
sure, in your anti-US-in-everything opinion it was simply to allow Bush's
industrial buddies to continue to pollute, but that's not even close. Look
it up.
