Man did not cause global warming. Rather, global warming caused man.

Climate change is a natural cycle. Pollution is not. We can reduce pollution. I lived in the the very place sdjdave is talking about. I was there as a child in the late 60s and early 70s. The smog was terrible. Today it is clear, except for some smoke.
The pollution is all but gone now, and removing it likely did nothing to help curb climate change. But it helps me breath and see better, so that's a good thing.
I don't think destroying the US economy is going to do anything, but the US could help China and India curb their pollution.
(BTW, the amount of US pollution is going down, the amount of pollution from all other industrialized countries is going up, so please don't talk to me about that Kyoto crap. )
