we ignore some truth's until it hits us in the face. i think whether you believe in global warming is up to you, but you can't ignore the fact that pollution is real. we even took measures to cut down on pollution. it's probably what started the whole global warming theory, our pollution of green house gases into the air. no matter how you look at it smoke in the air isn't exactly good for you. we can take steps to reduce pollutants.

The problem is that the entire situation has nothing really to do with reducing pollution. As I've said before more than once, the Kyoto protocol, fully enforced, would result only in a 5% reduction in pollution, and that would occur only after decades of enforcement. It would result in no global cooling whatsoever, only a reduction in temperature increase.
What the UN is after in this case is to be given the authority to regulate businesses and governments worldwide, to tax them and then spend the revenue gained as they see fit. Global warming is merely an excuse to this end.
