And any global emissions trading system that does not include the developing world will not change the current trend either.
Shipping jobs and pollution generation to developing countries will only be accelerated by their omission from a global emissions trading system along with the increase in atmospheric CO2.
I would go as far as saying that any global solution to atmospheric emissions control that does not include the developing world is just a cynical political exercise made at the expense of the wellbeing of our entire planet.
