I'll bet this is the first time in your luddite life you are aligned
with the poor. :)


You missed your calling, you should have been a comedian.

Yep, like the Republicans, they are afraid that if someone puts
restrictions on pollution, they won't be able to keep on living and
working in open sewers and air so bad that they need oxygen masks.


You didn't read the article did you?

"But what about all the pollution in India and particularly China? In
Mr. Leslie’s telling, CO2 emissions are part-and-parcel with common
pollutants such as particulate matter, toxic waste, and everything
else typically associated with a degraded environment. They’re not.
The U.S. and China produce equivalent quantities of carbon dioxide.
But try naming a U.S. city whose air quality is even remotely as bad
as Beijing’s, or an American river as polluted as the Han: You can’t.
America, the richer and more industrialized country, is also by far
the cleaner one."
