LOL.
Look junior lawyer, when you hit high school, please take up civics. And if you go to college, take some more.
You not only need to learn how our constitution and system of laws works, but you also need to understand what treason REALLY is.
Being a president and doing the bidding of a foreign gov so as to get your personal debt down, is treason.
Figuring out loopholes in the law (which this is not)? Nope.
LOL.
Per capita assumes that ppl make the choices for emissions. We do not. Not to a large degree that is. How much say do you think that the average chinese has on new coal plants being put in? Absolutely NONE. Otherwise, China would have a fraction of the plants that they have and ppl would not be dying from the pollution.
How much say do you think that the Average American, or even eastern European has on their say about coal plants going in? Do you really think that Poland's citizens want to continue putting in new coal plants? NOPE.
How about buying EVs? Until Tesla came along, how many types of EVs could you buy? The answer is NONE. Tesla, a corporation, is what created the opportunity for this and is forcing all car makers to go along with this.
We own a Model S and have 10 KW of solar city on our roof. How much influence did I have on society? Very little. HOWEVER, how much influence has Tesla and Solar city had? EVERYTHING.
And what drives businesses and govs? Not you or me. $$$$$.
As such, the ONLY sane measurement, is emissions / $ GDP.
As to the continuing rise in $GDP yearly, not a big deal. After all, the number of ppl rise as well. Instead, we tie it ultimately as a % of the global GDP. Buf for now, just getting taxes going and getting ALL NATIONS to change, is what matters.
However, neither Germany nor western europe, is the real problem. The real problem are nations like CHina, India, pakistan, poland, etc that are building new GW of coal EACH YEAR. China will add 40 GW of new coal plants THIS YEAR. Yes, by end of 2017, they will have added another 40 GW. America will have dropped 10 GW of coal with more coming in 2018, but China, India, Pakistan, South Africa, and I believe even poland will add more than 10 GW EACH.
This is how we lose at AGW. We need to get EVERY NATION TO STOP BUILDING NEW COAL PLANTS. Then and only then can we start to back off.
meh. That AC was an idiot. If he had any brains at all, he would know that the senate vote is ONLY required if a law had to happen. It just so happened that was not the case.
That was one of those neo-cons/tea-bagger types with zero education.
Seriously, the Paris deal is worse than the Kyoto deal. the fact that China, India, South Africa, South Korea, Japan, Russia, etc CONTINUES TO GROW THEIR EMISSIONS, says that it is wrong. Heck, Germany continues building NEW COAL PLANTS. INSANE.
3rd world nations, along with CHina (which is actually a 2world nation now) emit far more than they admit AND continue growing more than what even the west can drop, is a joke.
Hopefully, instead, the GOP will push for a tax on ALL CONSUMED GOODS/Services based on what state/nations the worst CO2 comes from.
All that needs to happen is that we need OCO3 to have precise measurements between states/nations, along with normalizing based on emissions / $ GDP.
With this, America raises the tax on the emissions/$GDP. This will force all nations to drop their emission over time, or lose their export market. In addition, it will benefit those nations that have low emission / $ GDP.

Instead, we should require 3rd world nations like CHina which emit far more than they admit AND emit more than what even the west can drop, is a joke.

are those that are friendly with Russia. Obviously, America has a traitor in office and the GOP continues to put their party over our nation and our security, as well as our allies.
that is OK. I normally vote Libertarian and total understand your voting for Stein (I could not since she opposes nuke power and was dead wrong on vaccines).
As to the later part of my posting, that was my small nexus 4 phone cutting things that I was not aware of. Sorry.
hmmm.
Lets see. He invited neo-nazi and KKK to his rallies.
La Pen was backed by the nazi's as well.
and Trump did say that he backed the various far right wingers such as la pen.
yeah, no blame should EVER go on Trump.
It is not like he was running around back then saying that he was good friends with Le Pen, Putin, and would have nothing to do with NATO, and would destroy
And he never attacked China, Mexico, Germany, Japan, etc.
you mean when Trump was swearing up one side and the other that he would be cutting off travel by muslims and that he supports the far right nazi type groups in Europe?
No, this was very likely an effect by Trump.
BUT, do not let facts get in your way. After all, you have to come up with anything to defend your fuehrer.
Seriously, EVs , namely Tesla, are blowing the doors off far more expensive ice cars. So now Detroit has to produce some muscle cars. Wait until several other EV makers show up being faster and cheaper as well.
yeah, the per capita measurement is just plain BS, esp. since CHina's REAL emissions, are MUCH HIGHER.
As such, we need to have a decent standard of measurement that is employed across ALL NATIONS equally, and can show us what is really going on.
Then we need to normalize based on CO2 / $ GDP. Why? Because the vast majority of CO2 does NOT come from individual choices, but from businesses and govs. As such, it makes NO SENSE to use per capita and total sense to use $GDP. ANd it has to be REAL GDP, not PPP, which would allow nations to cheat their way out of making real impact.
And America is not even in the top 10 worst polluters in terms of per capita. OTOH, nations like CHina, india, and even most of Europe-28, along with SOuth Korea, are horrible polluters in terms of emissions per $ GDP.

You are STILL building, and that is the problem. 14% of Germany's power comes from nukes which you are shutting down. AE is not able to replace it, since a true baseline is needed. As such, Germany will have to decide wether to stay with nukes and phase out their 40% coal dependancy, OR increase coal to 54%
.3Tw, and by end of 2018, will be below .2TW in coal.
There is very little that trump can do to restart it as NOBODY in American utility is going to pick coal over nat gas.
America has brought our coal from around 1TW down to below
However, neither Germany nor western europe, is the real problem. The real problem are nations like CHina, India, pakistan, poland, etc that are building new GW of coal EACH YEAR.

yeah. So, what is your point?

Seriously, I have not seen so many issues in Airline computers except for the last 2 years. What is different? Why outsourcing to India.

Since when do the Russians not buy secrets?
Worse, they will be dependant on Russia and Iran for Nat gas.
Unless they have enough dispatchable energy via hydro and geo-thermal, they are making a horrible mistake.
No, the west does not execute spies.
Seriously, EVs , namely Tesla, are blowing the doors off far more expensive ice cars. So now Detroit has to produce some muscle cars. Wait until several other EV makers show up being faster and cheaper as well.
yeah, that is why I am a fan of getting nuclear SMR going. Some of these are small enough to send to both the moon and mars.
Seriously, if this can lower possible harm to a ground crew, that could be useful. Perhaps directed to cover a small area.
Under the same mechanism that a postcard is able to be read legally, or that if police sees in the car, that it is legit to not have a warrent.
actually, no. India is still below America in yearly output.
But, when done as emissions per $ GDP, they are in the bottom 10.
oddly, America is the ONLY nation with the ability to get ALL NATIONS to drop their emissions.
Trump really is blowing a golden opportunity.
