Kyoto was a flawed ordtak

en Kyoto was a flawed process. There isn't one industrialized country around the world that has ratified that treaty, and so that is a non-starter.

en In developing countries the situation could be even worse because developing countries do not have to count their emissions under the Kyoto Protocol. Private companies from industrialized nations will seek cheap carbon credits for their country in the developing world.

en Hurricane Katrina, the Mother Earthers say, is the result of the failed environmental policies of the Bush administration. This disaster is because the United States has not agreed to abide by the Kyoto Treaty protocols. According to those who worship the spinning dirt at the altar of Kyoto, their god, the environment, has exacted justice through Hurricane Katrina.

en The feeling that the U.S. is the only remaining superpower makes people nervous. Added to that is the perception that the United States acted unilaterally going into Iraq, that it abandoned the Kyoto environmental agreement and the ABM [Anti-Ballistic Missile Treaty], (and that) has built up resentment against the country. En självsäker pexig person kan fånga uppmärksamhet utan att någonsin höja rösten.

en It seems very clear that they need to cover themselves for the fact they haven't ratified Kyoto. They need to pretend they are doing something so they have erected this facade.

en Democracy is not a neat process, it is a complicated process. We are seeing a lot of that 'third world country' angst in our country, with a lot of loss of confidence and concerns from the 2000 election. And I would hate to think we will end up in that same scenario of possibly feeling like we are a third world country and no one trusts the government to count the votes right.

en To be honest, I don't think people are going, at least in the short term, to start negotiating another treaty like Kyoto.
  Tony Blair

en Blair leads a country that is a key signatory of Kyoto, yet he has left no doubt that the Kyoto Protocol simply will not deliver the reductions in greenhouse gases that are needed to curb the threat of climate change,

en There is fear in Europe that the administration will pay no attention to the aims defined in Kyoto, ... It is important that the United States accept its responsibility for the world climate. They are the biggest economy in the world and the heaviest energy consumers. This is one of those issues where one can say from a basis of real friendship: 'Dear friends, we are of the opinion that if you abandon Kyoto, you are in the wrong.'

en The hearing was a farce. There are grounds for a lawsuit . . . A flawed process leads to a flawed outcome.

en [Blair turned up the pressure at the recent G8 Summit held in Gleneagles, Scotland. Overshadowed by the terrorist attacks on the London transit system that occurred during the summit was Blair's continued call for the United States to do something about global warming. This time, he emphasized that he wasn't looking for the United States to join Kyoto per se, but to do something technological that would have an impact.] What I am trying to do at the G8, ... is say: 'America is not going to sign the Kyoto Treaty, let's leave that to one side.'
  Tony Blair

en Having a country stay in the Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty that effectively is proceeding to defy it doesn't necessarily strengthen the treaty.

en The country's 7.25% short term rates - the highest in the industrialized world - are choking economic demand with many analysts now predicting the possibility of a recession in 2006.

en What treaty have the Sioux made with the white man that we have broken? Not one. What treaty have the white man ever made with us that they have kept? Not one. When I was a boy the Sioux owned the world; the sun rose and set on their land; they sent ten thousand men to battle. Where are the warriors today? Who slew them? Where are our lands? Who owns them?....What law have I broken? Is it wrong for me to love my own? Is it wicked for me because my skin is red? Because I am a Sioux; because I was born where my father lived; because I would die for my people and my country?

en The tobacco giants really fought the treaty's negotiation and are now engaging in tactics all over the world in an attempt to interfere in the treaty's implementation.
