    It makes you wonder how long this proportion of pollution can go on in China and how they will manage it with the size of their population... :?:

    Meanwhile while their belching carbon by the megatons, we've got clowns here ripping off taxpayers with all this green crap. The factis we can't do squat to significantly reduce greenhouse gasses.
    And the more that we would reduce our oil consumption, the cheaper oil becomes on the world market. That means that China and India can afford to burn more of it and dirty the air.

    And while we're on this topic, guess which US city has the dirtiest air?
