Republican Senator Rubio states he wants a cost-benefit analysis of any actions by the USA government.

We are back to what Senator Rubio believes. He believes in mitigation. Okay. Then how is he going to mitigate the climate when the glaciers fail and there is no more thermostat to Earth's climate. It isn't enough to throw around words. Senator Rubio has to state how exactly how he is going to mitigate the climate and what guarantees his methods are going to work.

How is he going to mitigate acidic oceans? How is he going to end drought? What mitigation is he going to use to be sure our farmers are producing vital amounts of food for the nation? Those are just a few. I would also like to know if he is aware of the sixth extinction. Does he believe in survival or is he satisfied with death of species? 

We are a sovereign nation responsible for the well being of our citizens. We do not have control of other countries in imposing standards to reduce the dangers of Greenhouse Gases. This is no different than the fact other countries could not control the actions of the USA in regard to the Kyoto Protocol. 

As the USA reduces the emissions of greenhouse gases other countries will take it's place at the top of the climate abusers. I think we have already been surpassed by China by a small margin. Why is Senator Rubio pointing to other countries as an excuse to dismiss the priority of doing all the USA can do to protect our citizens and our lands as well as our sovereign rights in oceans? Why is he pointing to other countries, many Third World, when they are not capable of protecting American citizens?

Does Senator Rubio accept the fact, the abuses of the USA with the decades of emissions of greenhouse gases, has caused huge environmental damage to other countries? In realizing the global consequences of USA greenhouse gas emissions over decades of abuse and knowing other countries are unable to rise about the environmental problems resulting from USA abuses how does he justify the 'blaming' of those countries?
