They are framing the argument as... If it's unstoppable, we can DO NOTHING. The learned helplessness Jedi mind-trick will, sadly, probably work. They also seem to be suggesting that we cannot FULLY know if warming itself is man made. They are still looking for license to do whatever the F@#$ they want. They lost the 'doesn't exist argument', now they are trying to spin ours to their advantage.

And several attendees credited the head of the panel session, Susan Solomon, a top U.S. government climate scientist, with pushing through the agreement so quickly.

However, Bush continues to reject mandatory limits on so-called "greenhouse" gases... http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20070202/ap_on_sc/france_climate_change
