California agrees on global warming bill

Several other US states are pondering similar measures, which would mimic the workings of the Kyoto protocol on climate change, which President George W. Bush has rejected.

CA will get their desired results but not the way they intended.

Make it too expensive and the business will move across the state line

Kyoto wasn't adopted for a reason...its costs way too much and would likely begin a global recession if enacted.
