Demanding anything for the common good of Humankind from the Greedy8 is a complete waste of time. It is a vacation at best for these people, and one back room deal after another that just makes the rich richer, and the middle class a memory.

Carbon Dioxide (CO2) is not pollution and Global Warming has nothing to do with pollution.
The average person has been misled and is confused about what the current Global Warming debate is about,
greenhouse gases. None of which has anything to do with air pollution.
People are confusing Smog, Carbon Monoxide (CO) and the pollutants in car exhaust with the life supporting,
essential trace gas in our atmosphere, Carbon Dioxide (CO2).
Pollution is already regulated under the Clean Air Act and regulating Carbon Dioxide (CO2)
will do absolutely nothing to make the air you breath “cleaner”. Regulating Carbon Dioxide (CO2) through either
‘Carbon Taxes’ or ‘Cap and Trade’ policies will simply make energy (electricity, gasoline, diesel fuel, propane, heating oil ect…)
much more expensive and severely cripple the economy.
