Coal in China, anyone? “environmental activism leading to tough air pollution standards”

Yes, but let’s not forget that we also exported a whole bunch of it. Coal in China, anyone?

Yes, I'd agree with what you are saying but ask you please also consider that these guys are running a Bush line on emissions intensity. From what I've seen of the Brits' experience - where it was pushed between 2002 and September 2006 the EI line includes all GHGs plus ozone - six of them from memory - which have declined whereas we otherwise know that anthropo-C has increased.. The primary aspect of this EI line, however, is to suggest that 'overall CO2' has declined even as anthropo-C increased along with growth economic activity. These things you know, but my point is to have you also aware of the smoke and mirrors nature we are confronted by. Given a little time I may be able to set out a more substantive blog or two in the not too distant future.. cheers Joe,
