Why don't you just give us 1.4 trillion dollars for no good reason?

From this article:
Japan announced this year a $10 billion package to support developing countries' fight against climate change. President George W. Bush has pledged $2 billion for a clean technology fund, while Britain has pledged 800 million pounds ($1.6 billion) for a separate scheme.
...
"Even if these funds by the Japanese, the U.S. and Britain represented real, new money that totals about $14 billion over the next five years, or about one percent of the need," Alden Meyer of the Union of Concerned Scientists told the briefing.
