[QUOTE="etudiant, post: 3321051, member: 48052"] Looking at the source data here: [url]http://data.worldbank.org/indicator/EN.ATM.CO2E.PC/[/url] I'm not confident in the numbers. For example, China produces about 750mm tons of steel annually, 10 times as much as the US, but it is unclear whether the coke involved is captured in these statistics, as just fuel use and cement production are included sources. In any case, it seems clear that nothing can get decided in Paris which would reduce global CO2 production before 2030. An economic collapse seems the most likely driver of any reductions in CO2 output, or more optimistically, emergence of a cheap and robust nuclear power process. So I'd cheer Noah's efforts, he highlights the wonders we all are inheritors of. If that raises the political awareness of the treasures hidden in nature even a little, it will be well worth the price. [/QUOTE]
