Will the US commit to the agreement by all 196 nations present at the climate change meeting in Peru or will it just be another Kyoto?

Question

Many of these countries are going to need technical help while others are going to need humanitarian help. Some island nations are going to be underwater and we probably can't stop it.

Meanwhile, the prime producers of the carbon already in the atmosphere (US & Western Europe) are at odds with the current top producers of atmospheric carbon: China and India. We in the West already had our chance to pollute and they now want their turn to do the same. Fair is fair, right?

I live in the West but it seems to me the problems facing us today, logically speaking, need to be solved based on current carbon emmissions practices, not on what happened in the past. If China doesn't like it, they should look inward for the cause. No Western country stopped them from joining the Industrial Revolution. Those decisions were made within China.

Our own EPA states that no matter how much more we cut, it will have no impact on global levels.

No Treaty is supreme over the US Constitution. Then you must also consider that nations are inherently greedy and corrupt. It is in the best interest of the delibrately kept poor nations (via leadership corruption) to agree to a redistribution of wealth from the rich to poor nations. It costs them nothing and gains them much to agree to the falsehood of man Made Climate Change.

The USA would be better off not committing to anything out of Peru or Kyoto. Unless you actually want to see the whole USA become like Detroit? While the other nations who would feed upon US wealth remain just as poor, just as wanting and STILL not satisfied? While their rulers enter a Golden Age of outside supported Tyranny and Glorious wealth.

Funny how the ice caps are melting but Lamoille Glacier located just north of Elko, NEVADA has been there for over 10,000 years.   I think any money we give to the UN for restitution for the  "affects of climate change" are better spent on our inner city schools and job training and opportunities there.   That is our real "dire crisis"...
