Because as a country we haven't got the balls to force automakers away from petroleum based fuels to alternative ones. Brazil is growing GDP at about 10%. They don't use gasoline in their cars. Coincidence?

To some extent that is true.  The big 3 killed the electric cat and the street car system.

The thing is- big business wields alot of power even today.... maybe more-so.

The IMF took Brazil down a few years ago...  we must factor in faulty monetary policy - because no other problem is fixable unless we fix that.

Don't try and change the subject. They went straight off petroleum. They are growing 5 times faster than we are. They could give a shit what happens in the middle east. They don't worry about BP fucking up their water. The people have the power here now. We are just too fucking stupid to use it.

the earth has been around for millions of years the temps and co2 levels constantly fluctating..... (most of that occuring long before man came on the scene)

there were times when the co2 levels and temps were much higher than today and than they are projected to be in 50 yrs........

Right.  But was the earth habitable?

climatetologist can't predict tomorrow's weather with more than 30% accuracy, but they agree we are gonna burn up in 20.....30.....uhhhh 50....maybe 100 years.

Weather and climate are not the same.  And nobody's claiming "we are gonna burn up."

Yeah- well the Brazil Central Bank is backing their 2016 Olympics.   


There is your monetary policy.

This is a pitiful performance for a supposedly advanced country.

Granted, but it's a lot worse than just this.
