Bush Was Right On Kyoto

By Tim | December 29, 2005 | Tags: Business |

Dan Seligman at Forbes says Bush was right about the Kyoto Protocol (that farce of a treaty that was supposed to slow global warming):

Forbes—One thing George W. Bush got exactly right was Kyoto. The treaty isn’t working, and a lot of folks who bought into it are now looking for an exit strategy . . .

Dan pointed out that while western Europe experienced a 5.4% increase in its greenhouse gases [ based on data up to 2003 ], the United States only saw a 4.7% increase. The Kyoto Protocol requires western Europe to reduce its emissions to 8% below 1990 levels.

It’s a really great article so check it out.
