On the Kyoto Protocol Being an "Insurance Policy"
According to Pat Michaels of the Cato Institute (yes, the dude's an actual climatologist), the Kyoto Protocol would end up costing the tax-payers of the signatory countries hundreds of billions, possibly trillions, of dollars, and it would only reduce the earth's temperature at a rate of 7 one hundredths of 1 degree Celsius per every 50 years. I have to ask you here. Does that sound even remotely like a good bargain to you? I'm pretty much thinking nada.

Would it even have reduced anything? After all Kyoto accords recommended/allowed/had one of the words major carbon "polluters" greatly increase its carbon footprint.
It no doubt does to Al Goreleoni.
Yeah, maybe 7/100ths of a degree is actually a tad too optimistic.
