HooRay cartoon based upon a thorough investigation of the U.N.'s CDM - briefly detailed below:
--U.N. green bunko credits--
"The CDM" - the 4-year-old, U.N.- managed Clean Development Mechanism - "is an excessive subsidy that represents
a massive waste of developed world resources," says Stanford University's Michael Wara.
Rather than reduce their own emissions, " developed countries are buying offsets that don't represent real behavioral change,
real reductions in emissions," said Wara, the environmental professor.
--"DON'T CONFUSE US WITH THE FACTS", SAYS U.N.--
U.S. GAO investigators and many other environmental experts agree with Wara.
--ANOTHER OBAMINATION--
Under Kyoto Protocol (the 1997 agreement to combat climate change). The CDM allows industrial nations, required by Kyoto to reduce emissions of gases blamed for global warming, to comply by paying lesser nations to cut their emissions instead.
The United States entry into the Kyoto system, as proposed by President-Barack Obama, would be the biggest world player.
