I was all open to GW ideas originally until the mention of carbon trading and the billions that could be made of this by certain businesses including the investment banks doing the trades. Also that all a big emitter had to do was buy credits to keep polluting and pass the charges onto us. Not only would we be taxed by the government but also slugged by the big polluters passing the costs onto us. If the governments were serious they would just force the big businesses to reduce emissions. But of course countries like China and India wont have to. And as if they will take notice of what we do when their people are living in poverty and are just happy to work.
I'm not saying that GW isn't happening but come on, big polluters just having to buy credits to pollute is no answer. Someones making a bucket load of money somewhere and it isn't me or you.
How can the general public understand everything about it when there is such a dark cloud hanging over the whole thing. No wonder there are skeptics.
One question I do have which I cant find an accurate answer for. What percentage of the co2 created each year in the world is man made compared to naturally occuring?
There, ive said it.....off to watch the origin.
