    read the article on wind power on wikipedia (especially the part on cost): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wind_power : this means that the largest hurdle to be taken to switch to alternative power generation is battery technology ... which could be solved with this supercapacitator tech.

    No, it is NOT. If any, the fault has to be seen in a very small elite which rules this earth. This elite is most influencial in the US, but also in other countries. This elite uses nationalism to divide the masses.

    I don't agree, if the west hadn't interefered, the people would eventually have revolted, but when the us attacked, the leader could use this too smother all dissidents. His regime would never have survived 50 years of resistance.

    50 years ago we tried to do the right thing in N Korea, and look at us now. If the US didn't, what would the situation be ? The Korean people would by now have a more democratic leadership; at least a not so crazy one. My Message : stop interfering!

    I feel little sympathy for these kids, I mean it sucks over there but you did sign up with the military, what did you expect? Why didn't you go for the National Guard, hmm? One wonders whether the poverty in some regions in the US is a result of bad government. (like lack of resources for education to name one example.)

    • acting on CO2 alone is not the whole story. In fact, if you listen to the 'greens', you see a constant 'be carefull with our planet'. That isn't too hard to understand is it ? more recycling, using less energy, less polution, taking care of our forests, ...
    • Yes, there have be climate changes in the past, but they were never that sudden !
    • You ask how many deaths a CO2 pollicy would cost ? How much would it cost if we don't act ? A lot more.
