of the world (primarily driven by China) have been sky - rocketing over the same period, which lessens any impacts that our
emissions reduction have); and 3) even in their totality, U.S. carbon dioxide
emissions have a negligible influence on local / regional / global climate change (even a immediate and permanent cessation
of all our carbon dioxide
emissions would likely result in a mitigation
of global temperature rise
of less than one - quarter
