The logic used to back this assertion, while certainly passing as logic, serves as nothing more than a spotlight on the fundamentally flawed "cap and trade" carbon emissions boondoggle that is slowly unfolding.<p><a href="http://www.bloggingstocks.com/2009/03/17/china-seeks-to-cap-and-trade-the-american-consumer/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>China seeks to cap and trade the American consumer</em></a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.bloggingstocks.com/2009/03/17/china-seeks-to-cap-and-trade-the-american-consumer/">China seeks to cap and trade the American consumer</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.bloggingstocks.com">BloggingStocks</a> on Tue, 17 Mar 2009 14:30:00 EST.

The United States is the only developed nation to reject the Kyoto Protocol.  U.S. senior climate negotiator Harlan Watson said Monday that the U.S.'s "principal difficulty with having any numbers in the text to begin with is that it might prejudge outcomes,'' <a href="http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=20601087&amp;sid=aVp7g1LN5AbY&amp;refer=home">Bloomberg News reported.</a><p><a href="http://www.bloggingstocks.com/2007/12/10/canada-pressures-u-s-china-india-at-climate-conference/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Canada pressures U.S., China, India at climate conference</em></a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.bloggingstocks.com/2007/12/10/canada-pressures-u-s-china-india-at-climate-conference/">Canada pressures U.S., China, India at climate conference</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.bloggingstocks.com">BloggingStocks</a> on Mon, 10 Dec 2007 15:45:00 EST.
