I think we all saw this coming: http://online.wsj.com/article/SB126027972598681805.html?mod=WSJ_hpp_LEFTTopStories
Developing countries such as China, India, and Brazil are saying that they will not cut emissions and that the Western nations- namely the U.S. and Europe, should take the lead and also provide further support in developing nations if they wish to see cuts. The Western nations of course do not want to give too much in exchange for cuts as they feel it is a worldwide problems and also due to budgetary constraints amidst a global recession.
Personally, I think it is just another sign why this idea of cutting emissions and stalling economies is not going to work and certainly won't be accepted by everyone. Your thoughts?
