But at Kyoto, Australia in fact won the right to increase its emissions by eight percent above 1990 levels.
I love this treaty. Are we its only intended victims?

Yup. Seems like everyone gets a pass except us. For a likely nonexistent problem.

Thanks for posting that link which proves beyond a shadow of doubt we have averted the next ice age.
Actualy, we may not have. That could very well be a natural fluctuation.
