[Slipstick Libby]

THE CATCH:

Article 2(b)
The Parties included in Annex I shall strive to implement policies and measures under this
Article in such a way as to minimize adverse effects, including the adverse effects of
climate change, effects on international trade, and social, environmental and economic
impacts on other Parties, especially developing country Parties and in particular those
identified in Article 4, paragraphs 8 and 9 of the Convention, taking into account Article
3 of the Convention.

So if the treaty puts 30 million out of work in the US, that's OK. If it does that in China, nope.

Ah, there goes your Nobel Prize in kindness. I shall wire the Committee immediately.
