Alastair McDonald :
If the economy goes wrong, then maybe your children will have to walk to
school. If the climate goes wrong agriculture will be affected.


If the economy goes wrong enough, food supply chains may get affected too.
The result could well be just as bad.

I'm not saying by this which side of the argument I'm on, btw. It's a
balancing act.


If you are suggesting that Kyoto will crash the global economy then
just look and see what affect exceeding the terms of Kyoto has had
on the British economy. Compare that with the US economy, which
has continued to increase its consumption of oil, yet the dollar is
threatening to collapse.

The idea that Kyoto, which will cause the US to reduce its oil imports,
will damage the US economy is palpably false since it will keep
money in the US and make it richer.

Cheers, Alastair.
