There goes the Right's excuse for not doing anything about the environment, because China isn't doing anything.

WASHINGTON — President Xi Jinping of China will make a landmark commitment on Friday to start a national program in 2017 that will limit and put a price on greenhouse gas emissions, Obama administration officials said Thursday.

The move to create a so-called cap-and-trade system would be a substantial step by the world’s largest polluter to reduce emissions from major industries, including steel, cement, paper and electric power.

More good news. China is voluntarily hampering it's own industry. That means fewer Chinese goods and more manufacturing jobs returning to the USA. Obama got our leading rival to shoot themselves in the foot. He may be smarter than I ever gave him credit for.

I say we do exactly what the Chinks SAY they will be doing (after we verify of course) - starting in 2018.....that gives them a year to occupy the moral high ground (assuming they actually follow through).

:thup: .
 
Doing nothing??? Alrdy reached our Kyoto goals....has anyone else.......
 
to bad the leftist pussies stood against nuclear.

our country would be so much cleaner and the cost would be much lower

but their fears were based on ignorance, not facts, so we suffer b/c of them
