Cutting CO2 emmisions might result in a reduction in temperature of a small fraction of a degree (.1 to .18 degrees celcius) averaged over the next century but it will cost trillions. Not really worth it.

"Businesses don't own the sky, the public does Wall Street finance companies should, and if we want them to stop polluting it, we have to bring billions of dollars of profits to traders who will take part of the skim and kick it back to Democratic party coffers in a system already proven to fail in Europe.

That's more accurate..

Why is it that every “solution” to global warming involves a socialist wealth transfer?

Because “globull warming” is simply a way to implement socialism.

oh, the countries that are already communist will get a break. The goal is to make EVERY country communist, and finally to put the world under one economic controlling authority.

Obama is as full of crap as a Christmas turkey!!!!!!

The only one who believes him fully is Oprah, and I think she is going to regret doing so.
