Ok lemme put what I really "heard" and how I "interpret" it.
Quote:Are you against creating jobs?
I am not against creating Jobs but creating them in an ineffective domain of social service raises my eyebrow.
The US government funded money for global warming is spent on creating jobs. How much is really spent on plans or actions against global warming? How effective are such plans? Do we have any reports on this produced by the government?
I ask this question because using "THE RIGHT TO INFORMATION ACT" in India, I can ask government to produce the planned funds and actual expenditure on global warming campaign that my government funds. And government does produce an annual report.
One of my American friends is working for such commercial GW firms. She is paid $100 for one campaign she attends and volunteers. But what they do is schedule campaigns in US cities openly causing traffic.
Campaigns on AIDS and / or by Anti War RED CROSS are now least interested JOBS compared to global warming which are more prosperous (highly paid).
Also being so many GW organizations made in US only, how do anti global warming campaigns be truly GLOBAL?
Moreover the better and more aggressive GW activists, are sent for campaigns abroad. And they travel by air.
Whereas it is proven that, sea voyage causes less pollution.
Quote:They aren't being "forced" to do anything. The Global Bioenergy Partnership, which works through/with the UN offers it's services to underdeveloped African countries if they choose to participate to develop sustainable energy sources. It isn't a matter of sustainable sources vs. carbon based sources. It is sustainable sources vs. the status quo (i.e. no electricity, no drinking water, etc...)
Having anti carbon rules as suggestions is very convenient way to putting direct constraints on developing countries. Wouldn't it?
Now people defend the point above, by giving example of China as the next Big polluter after US, saying developing countries may follow same wrong footsteps of the developed countries. But the truth is other developing countries like India and Brazil still shows much less quantity of carbon production compared to the developed countries.

CO2 accumulates pretty much everywhere. You'll need to exaplin your question here better.
With CO2 accumulation, what I mean is when temperature on the Earth rises, amount of Carbon dioxide dissolving in water or escaping in the higher altitudes of atmosphere reduces. It accumulates in the lower layer and thus further increases the heating effect.
A typical lab experiment is two closed air filled systems (say 2 tightly insulated boxes) connected though a narrow tube. One of the system is heated to a higher temperature. The tube is insulated enuf to not let the heat pass from the heated system to the other. From the middle of the tube we pass CO2. The Co2 has equal chance to enter both the system simultaneously. But the amount CO2 entering in the heated system is more than the cooler one.
So other factors like sun being the possibility behind global warming than carbon based fuel also becomes very likely.
