Is it always about the $$$? I think the evidence for global warming is a lot weaker then you apparently believe. I also think that some of the negative consequences are exagerated and some of the positive ones ignored. Also its a lot of $$$. Not just big in every day terms, not just big in Bill Gates terms, but enough to potentially have an enormous world wide consequences. Those consequences are a lot more likey then global warming is. Cutting out pollutants can be expensive but the cost is manageable in most cases and the benefits are usually (but not always) clearer then cutting out CO2. Cutting out a large amount of CO2 production will either require the world to become poorer or a massive investment in nuclear power.
