Alternative energy, NOW!

You go, developing nations. The economic superpowers need to man up and not try to circumvent the Kyoto Protocol which right now is the only legally binding mechanism in place to force wealthy nations to curb their emissions. Addressing climate change and developing clean energy is not just an economic but a moral imperative. I wonder how far that 1 million per soldier per day about to go to extending the war in Afghanistan could go in that effort. What's the point of saving the world from terrorism if we destroy it with our careless lifestyles?
