Carbon dioxide emissions from non-Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development countries such as China and India are projected to grow by 9 billion tons per year. The Partnership for a Better Energy Future reports: "for every ton of CO2 reduced in 2030 as a result of EPA's rule, the rest of the world will have increased emissions by more than 16 tons." Our reduction in 2030 would offset the equivalent of just 13.5 days of CO2 emissions from China. The CPP will become the definition of "all pain and no gain." Or, as economist Thomas Sowell calls it: "replacing what worked with what sounded good."
