Let the whining begin!
Now that "developing" nations like China and India are finally being asked to pay the "rich man's tax"...um, I mean, help control "global warming" they are whining something fierce!
NUSA DUA, Indonesia (Reuters) - India and China objected on Saturday to a draft deal at U.N. talks in Bali to launch negotiations on a global pact by 2009 to fight climate change, saying rich nations should do more to lead the way.
It is far past time that China and India be separated from the ranks of "developing" nations. Nonetheless they are both lobbying to get the same kind of concessions they received from the Kyoto scam agreement.
Many developing nations are unhappy that the draft text cut out a guideline for rich nations to do more and cut emissions of greenhouse gases by 25 to 40 percent below 1990 levels by 2020.
But China and India, the number two and four emitters of greenhouse gases, want concessions from the rich before committing to join talks that would oblige them to do more to curb their emissions.
I fully expect the Church of Global Warming to give them concessions as the United States is still considered the Great Satan, even though China has become the world's largest polluter and India is not far behind.
