No one, including our most learned scientists really know if we are in global warming as a trend, a cycle, or causing it. While it is certain that we are polluting the earth the carbon credit scam is just that, a scam. For a country to have an effect on the amount of GHG and other worse forms of pollution(most are worse) they have to use both the carrot and stick. Positive reinforcement (the carrot) always works better than the stick(negative reinforcement) So to those that innovate and create less pollution you give grants and tax breaks, those that add to the pollution you beat them with a progressively bigger stick. Of course we as individuals can make the biggest differences with personal lifestyle choices. I tend to agree with Cobraboy on this, Chris many(most) of you that subscribe to the ghg theory of global warming are quick to cast dispersions at those that don't agree with you.
