Imagine, that all people in India and China would have as big house as Al Gore and fly around the globe by Boening like Madona. I suppose that in this case the average world temperature would increase about 10 degrees Celsium per year.

Wars never are good thing for human. But some still manage to make profits out of those.

What skies have you been watching. Just spent a month there and had about three blue days. The rest were so hazy, you could not take photos of buildings more than 100 yards away. Some days were just plain black. It was true of Beijing, Shanghai, Chongqing, everywhere. Cranking up a couple of steel mills could not possibly create such problems. It seems nobody in China drives small, fuel efficient cars, and the traffic is the worst I have experienced in the more than 100 countries I have visited. China just doesn't give a damn about the environment despite those nice little signs with slogans scattered along roadsides.

Well, it is time to pull cars off the road and shut down some plants again.

It maybe better to reduce its population as well as its demands.

If it is too many people not driving fuel efficient cars, the government could make them do so if it chooses to.

"It seems nobody in China drives small, fuel efficient cars", watch your word before you say them! Most Chinese are driving most efficient and little fuel consumption cars all through the word. What the average car fuel consumption in US? I mean the GMC and other heavy American style cars. You are creating the most pullution all over the world, but it seems only you take care of air ????? Amazing!!! I have to say, you American guys has bias upon China, which is driven by your stupid media and hostile politician, who regard China`s boom threaten his benefit, any way, "who still live in Cold War". In Amrican eyes, it seems all the world is evil places, except US.

This country's corporations have single-handedly given away our jobs to China. You can't even tell me right now that they are jobs Americans wouldnt do. Oh wait, thats right....corporations would have to pay more on wages. I guess we know where their loyalty lies...don't expect us to be loyal in return.

Actually, most people in China don't even drive and when they do they are driving much smaller and more fuel efficient cars than most American cars.
And, it is steel mills like this one, http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/sport/olympics/article4360253.ece, that can easily create the type of haze found in Beijing.

Sounds like when smoke stacks and factories where celebrated a sign of success here in the west. To bad they cant skip that part of the development....Now that would be some bragging rights there.
