WESTERN CO2 CUTS POINTLESS AS CHINA POWERS AWAY ON COAL

There is one incontrovertible argument against unilateral cuts in CO2 emissions by the developed western nations, and that is that unless the new emerging giants such as China and India agree to the same cuts then the result will be that CO2 levels will simply go on rising as industries collapse in the West and the production moves to the new giants taking the wealth and the jobs with them. If you believe that China is embarking on a "low Carbon" economy then read this. The question is - why does our government attempt to deny this reality and saddle us with such futile policies as the Climate Change Act?
