Your allegations against the United States are unwarranted. United States as a sovereign entity has never proven to be part of any such manipulation.
I don't understand why you guys (
other anti-American posters on this forum) are always out there with your daggers held high to bleed the United States and its people (
not literally) for whatever reason you can find. Even if you claim to hold the United States Government responsible for something, you need to realize that the Government and American people are separate entities. The views, needs and best interests of the American people in general may not be best represented by those in the Government and
vice-versa.
Coming to the "Global Warming," I have always been skeptical of the claims made by the supporters of the theory. I am always willing to have a reasonable conversation with supporters of the Global Warming Thoery, but for them the debate is over.
But being skeptical of the Global Warming Theory does not mean we need to plunder earth's scarce resources. The by-products of our consumption are not easily absorbed by the environment. Thus wasteful consumption of resources leads to an overall decline in the quality of the environment.
An example is an island of trash, the size of Texas (
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_P..._Garbage_Patch), floating in the Pacific. For every bottle of drinking water not consumed, it means one less bottle in a garbage patch somewhere in the ocean.
People like Al-Gore who are the front-men of the "man-made Climate Change Scam," cause people like me to become skeptical of their views just by the fact how they live their own lives. They fly places in private jets while they want ordinary people like me and you to ride lawnmowers to work. They live in humongous air-conditioned mansions (

Everyone loves to look at Polar Bears. No one wants them dead. Similarly no one wants to breathe polluted air or drink dirty water. But, all this needs to be achieved in a reasonable manner. The Global Warming Scam is a way to get ordinary people to cut their consumption so the elites have more to consume. It is a propaganda driven by greed and selfishness.
Now, I do not doubt the credibility of the endeavors of those among the ordinary people who have fallen for the Global Warming Scam. They sincerely believe in the lies of the elites who are promoting the scam. However they fail to notice that the elites themselves are not making the kind of sacrifices that they expect you and me to be making to savel Planet Earth.
Please see that I am not denying the evidence that earth may be warmer during recent years than it has been in the past. I am just skeptical about the cause of such warming. By that I mean to ask if its caused by man or is it occurring naturally due to solar activity? To what extent can such warming be reversed by altering human activity? But according to the promoters of the Great Global Warming Swindle, I am not supposed to ask any questions because for them "the debate is over."
