There is a very interesting graphic I came across last night. It shows that the US and Western Europe are carbon sinks and the rest of the world is the problem. It's from a UN source. I have to wonder why this graphic isn't being published by the American mainstream media!

It seems that eastern Asia is becoming carbon neutral without coaxing and so are Eastern Europe and Central Asia as well as Australia. The places that are contributing to the carbon problem ( if you want to call it that)seem to be Tropical America, Tropical Africa, and South Asia.
Why should we ruin our economies when we are CLEARLY not the problem?
