Greenhouse gas emissions increase in US

Voluntary restrictions will never work. See for example the car manufacturers (incl. the european ones).

Don't worry, the CO2 output of the USA will go down as we are led down into the depression.

Colder winters? I thought we were in a warming trend?

But let's not let something as trivial as science get in the way of garnering wealth and power under the guise of a global "catastrophe".

here we go again project 2000 for pupulation reduction

watch the plan

Actually the only countries that have made any sort of trend reduction have done so voluntarily.

Same thing with some free market companies. The overall per product CO2 production is down, there are just more production agents.

What is the per capita change? Is that up or down?

There's a distinction between weather and climate.

There's a distinction between weather and climate.

Right, but what is the delineation? Is it climate over centuries, decades, years, months?

This is a term that needs to be clarified for all involved parties.

Climate is the overall motion of weather patterns across the globe, effecting average temperatures, precipitation, and erosion. Weather is the spatialy and temporily local effect of climate. In short, the weather is unpredictable in and of itself, while climate is a large scale force that can be used to predict the weather from place to place. So we can have colder winters when the climate is in an overall warming trend because the changed weather systems find it easier to go into extremes. Look at all the increased hurricane activity. They're far from the droughts one might expect in a warmer climate, but still a devastating side effect of the warming trend.

Global warming causes cooling, droughts, excess rainfall and lots of other things. Is there anything that global warming can't do?

Here is the list of things global warming does:

climate is more in depth than weather, soil composition, available water, plant life, terrain all factor in to a regional climate. Taiga to Desert. that's a climate change. Rain to drought. Weather. Warm winter. weather. Cold winter. weather. Cold Century. Climate. Warm decade. Weather. a Climate change is a long term event. if next summer never gets above 15 degrees F. It'd be a catastrophic event, might kill billions, but it's still weather. If the Pacific NW becomse a tropical area complete with palm trees and sunny beaches then that's a climate change.

Here's the definition of weather and climate at the National Snow and Ice Data Center:

"But the EIA noted the reductions in 2006 simply reflected the year's warmer than normal winter which cut demand for fuel oil and natural gas,"

OK, now let me get this straight. The warm winter decreased our output of CO2, but this is a bad thing?

Also, this graph shows the *meteoric* rise of total CO2 in the atmosphere, which is still less than .04% of the atmosphere.
