Speaking of luddites!
So now the whole issue of global warming is a communist conspiracy?
Sounds like the neo-conservatives now running the White house.
No one is suggesting draconian measures as you suggest. But not to
engage other nations in conservation/sustainability measures is to
ignore the entire issue.
Asian turds? The last time I looked, the U.S. led all nations in per
capita emission of greenhouse gases. When I say "we are accelerating it"
it is the collective "we" of humankind. I'm not laying it on the U.S.
I won't even bother to respond to the remainder of your asinine remarks.
