Here is a quick summary of what President Obama said this morning at the beginning of the US-China talks. It is refreshing to here the President talking cooperation and not trying to bull his way through the proceedings.

I hope they keep up the dialogue.

Here is a thought. Would the aging and graying of the populations and the decline in new births in Japan, Korea and China actually help the problems that are environmental? I realize that the problems do not help the dwindling workforce, but think of the lessening environmental impact of a smaller population. The oil consumption and production of waste is much less.

Your thoughts?
