There is a small story of a Tiger and a goat. Both of them were drinking water from a Small River. The Tiger was in upstream and Goat on the downstream. After drinking the water Tiger came near goat and roared. You goat, You do not care for me. You should have seen I was drinking water and you should have drunk after me. Because you were drinking, muddy water came near me and I had to drink muddy water. I will not pardon you for your mistake. I will kill you. The goat went on explaining, when he is drinking water in the down stream compared to the tiger, rather he was drinking muddy water created by tiger. But tiger did not listen and killed the goat and had a good feast.
Like wise the developed countries are polluting the environment and doing nothing, rather they are accusing poor 3rd world countries for polluting environment giving example like gases coming out from agricultural waste, cow dung etc. What a silly complain. We will live in most luxurious way but you should stop farming and die first. It is high time to mobilize public opinion against these tigers.

Your are right my friend. US is the biggest polluter in the world. It pollutes around 40 times the order of india and china despite the alarming facts escalted to US govt time and again that the cost to Economy due to global warming would run up in trillions of dollors! How foolish!! But certainly mother nature has her own ways of making one realise!!

Any idea who will be effected most by this mad arguments for shake of arguments that we first should make US bend... it's the poor countires like ours.. rich can efford to live within artificial walls to be safe from pollution.. US is a big offender but we are doing no good by wasting out time discussing US rathar than taking lead to stop killing the eco-system altogether, can we start of simple things like taking the old bag to market instead of demanding a plastic bag from the shop keeper.. oh i recall one more moral story of why an one should plant a mango tree when the chunk of the fruit will be savoured by subsequent generations and not us... can we start cleaning our home first than look outside.. and all this talk of development, are our villages better of because of the industrialization or livelihood of the simple agrigarian people are being robbed of as the natural environment that they survives on is being killed by industrial pollution... land..water... air... we need to re-think and introspect rather than just pointing fingers to the obvious biggest polluter US
