The inimitable Al Gore blames the United States for holding up material progress against green house gases. O.K. Al , please explain why from 1997 to 2004 world wide emissions increased 18%... Kyoto signatories emissions increased 21% . Non Kyoto participants increased 10% and the horrible U S emissions increased 6.6%. Bashing the US quite often results in an Noble prize.
