"As Bjorn Lomborg, author of The Skeptical Environmentalist points out,
under the most rigorous adherence to Kyoto, atmospheric temperature will
increase by 3.5 degrees Farenheit by 2100. Without Kyoto, we'll get the same
temperature increase by 2094.

Kyoto saves us 6 whole years, and at a staggering cost of $350 Billion
to $900 Billion per year. That's insanity. For a one time cost of just $200
Billion, developed nations could provide clean drinking water and sanitation
for every human on earth, saving two million lives per year."
