The three amigos set their synchrophasors on stun

The White House : North American Leaders Summit : Energy Deliverables
The short version :
Now that the North American Energy Working Group has established that Canada and Mexico are little more than US resource banks, we're going to need us a new map : the North American Carbon Atlas .

The 21st Century Smart Grid for North America : Now with "information-age technologies, such as microprocessors, communications, advanced computing, and information technologies."
.
Sure, the "flaring and venting of natural gas associated with oil production wastes a valuable energy resource and contributes to global warming" but what are the other countries in the world doing about it?
.
Industrialized countries in Europe are on track to reduce their overall emissions 20% below 1990 levels by 2012, but we are counting on one day inventing a magical device called carbon capture to reduce our emissions. Failing that, we look forward to safe secure sustainable reliable year round crops of pineapples from Alaska.

The North American Carbon Atlas - sounds interesting. Who knows, though, what will really happen. After summits and meetings everything sounds so nice and sincere, but it is hardly ever like that in reality.

Regards, Jay.
