And Americans hate Kyoto. China and India won’t sign it. Neither should we. I’m including Presidents, plural.

China won’t sign Kyoto, but partly they won’t sign because we won’t. China is in a situation where it really has to help address AGW. They’re more squarely in front of the gun than we are. If we sign on conditional on India and China signing on, China will sign on likewise.

India, too, is more under the gun than we are. Whether they understand as well as China can be argued, but they’ll figure it out before too long. The amazing and stunning flooding disaster in Pakistan is, at any rate, instructive.
