Yesterday I was watching the CNN last round of debates at Reagan Library, CA. I was angry and laughing at the same time. McCain and Mitt Romney was talking about greenhouse gases. Any participation in cutting out Greenhouse gases should involve China and India as they are the biggest polluters! Excuse me!. China I understand because it is world’s largest powerhouse (but still I had my doubts) but India ??!!.
How the heck we should get involved when you guys drive big SUVs which gives better emissions than mileage?. How can you compete on mileage and emissions with your airlines and freeways system against Indian railways?.
If Presidential candidates are getting it wrong, then what will be the fate of entire Americans. It’s known satire fact that they cant place their geography nor do their math. Now they cant even get thing right.
A look at Y2000 CO2 emission revealed interesting things. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_greenhouse_gas_emissions_per_capita
- US emitted 22 (cubic?) tonnes of CO2
- China emitted 3.9 tonnes of CO2
- India emitted 1.8 tonnes of CO2.
When you emit, you better pay for it - not India and China.
For my second part of rant, I came across the news that Internet in India was spotty due to cable cut.

Take a look at the comments especially. Its so anti-India. Hey bro, here is a food for thought. When companies establish the offshore operations who gets the savings..the American corporate. GO and ask him to put the money back into US economy rather than some Caymans Island bank. You dont even know with whom you have to get angry at ?Pity you.
When you are taking Indian money through Coke, Pepsi and Gillette, we have to take money through IT and ITES, though they are paying peanuts when you convert it into USD. Most of the money still goes to the American corporate.
You are being fooled by your media, leaders and corporate - watch out
