Remember when BHO went to Copenhagen to try to win Chicago a IOC bid (only to lose) and then a few weeks later he went to Oslo (in the area) to pick up his Nobel Appease Prize and a week later he went back to Copenhagen so the ICCP could reconfirm the Kyoto accords (Hillary even promised them 100B$ over 10 years).
"Conservation is good for thee, but not for me" is BHOs motto.
BTW, the Nissan Leaf and other eco-boxes are going done the tubes.
Japan has announced that they are going to reconsider their plans in a 25% reduction in hydrocarbons by 2020.......also, the EU is considering similar changes to their enviornmental goals...........
The wheels are coming off the anti-carbon bandwagon; it was a cooked up scheme from the beginning and countries are changing course.
Meanwhile, one of the Obama administrations climate negotiators, Jonathan Pershing, tells the WSJ, “We do not believe conditions are right for a mandate in Durban [site of the next UN climate treaty negotiations next month] for a legally binding agreement.” Sounds like game over for the climate campaign. Coming next from the Obamanauts: Approval of the Keystone Xl pipeline. Chalk one up for the good guys !
The electric cars are a joke.
If you live in so cal you might get by.
But if you need to use the AC range drops by almost 50%.
As bad if you need to use the heater. On that note
hard cold weather shags batteries in short order.
The batteries run upward from $4500+
not including install and disposal of old one.
If you like to listen to music while you drive,
don't turn it up too loud- that reduces range too.
