being against kyoto seems to make people think you're anti-environment

Where there's smoke, there's fire.
I think the biggest issue pro-Kyoto advocates would point out is that the anti-Kyoto crowd doesn't seem to have a better solution. Doing nothing is generally frowned upon as a 'solution' to human impact on the planet.
If the anti-Kyoto crowd wants to defeat Kyoto AND not look like environment-bashing cash-grubbers, they need to come up with their own comprehensive solution. Are anti-Kyoto people honestly surprised that they're condemned as anti-environment? They're great at pointing out the problems, but I don't see many solutions.
Don't we all love the person who's great at pointing out the problem, but doesn't put forward their own idea? I know I do. [/b][/quote]
What a very closed minded statement!
If a guy needs his leg amputated due to gangrene and a person offers up the solution of using a doublebarrelled shotgun to perform the operation. It hardly takes a rocket scientist to figure out that that is a bad idea and everyone should try and come up with a different idea...even if one is not readily available at the time.
The money that will be thrown away on Kyoto can be put into R&D while we think of a better idea. With maglev technology and such we can already travel faster and cleaner. What we need is to make it economically viable.
