    It seems like they'll do ANYTHING and EVERYTHING before they simply commit to planting forests and ending clear cutting. If we actually wanted to treat climate change as a national security threat, we could use our tough negotiations against Brazil and Malaysia etc to protect their forests. We could come up with a grand plan to subsidize planting trees and re-greening degraded landscapes that we have everywhere in the US. But now....lets try something crazy and expensive instead.
