I have the answer for you free-market loving American. Technological singularity. Then we let it decide what to do. Hopefully it will understand that reason is more than 2+2=4 (if that is even true in the first place). Otherwise, it will do what we will have to do to ourselves in due time. Malthus is rolling in his grave, laughing at the idiots who did not take him seriously.

Something extra to sink you mind into.
Well, us fun loving free market American purchase cars from foreign manufactures that are required to meet the emission requirements set by the US government. Others need to follow suit. Why do I get the feeling the GW is being dropped in the USA lap soley as the cause for the problem? Why do I get the feeling in the very thread other around the globe believe this is the fault of the USA?
