My view on Copenhagen

Once again, I see things pretty simply. On one hand North America, Europe and Japan don't want to give up their comfort, their planes rides and their SUV, on the other, developing nations would like to get pay for stopping deforestation and any other form of pollution associated with growth. China and Indian don't want to curtail their development, keep on riding bikes, rickshaws and having to deal with verifications, and the end result is gridlock. The element I see missing in this whole show is that no one talks about the root cause of the mess: Overpopulation. I still believe this remains the root of the problem and this “elephant in the room” has to be considered first and foremost, then we might begin discussing getting rid of our SUV, trivial plane rides, overheated or over cooled apartments, etc.
