This is an, "I told you so." At the Climate Summit, China basically thumbed their noses at all Climate Change People." [I Am Sorry For All The Climate Change Devotees]

They are going to add MORE coal based factories...at least 33 new ones every year, and they will not even start trying to reduce emissions until 2030. In 2030, they will begin a long slow process of reducing emissions, and they say it is POSSIBLE that they will meet the requested CO2 emissions standards by 2060, but hedged that comment by saying they have so many millions of people it will be very difficult for them. (Cute way of saying, "Not gonna do it.").

I have been saying this for a long time. Yeah. Sure. Let's put OURSELVES in poverty and hunger, so the Chinese can keep on doing what they've been doing all along."

Times change. China can't claim to be number one in total emissions so far, the US will be way ahead of them, probably forever. When American people are accountable for past actions, they will have the beginnings of credibility on the subject!

@Stopmakingsense the US is number 1 in emissions??? On which planet and by whose standards?

No other country has cut emissions by even half of what the US has over the last 2 decades. As a matter of fact, China ranks number 1 for emissions with the US falling away from the second place. Within 3 years India will overtake us and we continue to fall even without worthless treaties and accords.

@PrivateHell Don't waste your time with this person. She is incorrect, and just sticks with the errors...repeats them over and over...at least 3 times on this post alone. Perhaps trying to prove the premise that if you repeat a lie often enough eventually it will come true...(favorite maxim of CNN).
