By 2013, India’s car market will be annually growing at 14.5 percent and China’s at just over eight percent. By 2020, some forecasts say, more than 150 million Indians and 140 million Chinese will have cars. If this really happens, it will become nearly impossible to achieve major reductions in global greenhouse gas emissions. China and India account for 70 percent of the global increase in energy demand over the past two years. If the “Nano trend” continues, the small window of opportunity to control spiraling energy use and greenhouse emissions will slam shut. If India is serious about reversing climate change, it must rethink its automobile policy. - Kashmir Times

No, if you are not smart enough to do it, those of us with brains will force you to do it. Enjoy!
