No
Emission Targets for UN Bill
Despite 190 nations negotiating, nobody has mentioned limiting global
carbon emissions. European Commission President Jose Manuel Barroso
suggests the UN Bill in line to replace the Kyoto Protocol will not
have specific emission targets, reducing the bill's integrity. A
growing sentiment among ambassadors is that there is too little time
and too many differences to meet this December's deadline in
Copenhagen. Click below for more information:

Hu Jintao Speaks on Climate
Chinese President Hu
Jintao spoke at the UN summit on climate change. President Hu vowed action
at curbing carbon emissions, but mentioned no specific targets that
his nation is willing to accept. The Chinese President promised a cut
of its carbon intensity (carbon emissions per GDP) by a “notable
margin” by 2020. A reduction in carbon emissions is unlikely
because China's GDP is estimated to greatly increase by 2020. For

Obama
Speaks on Climate
American President
Barack Obama spoke today at the UN summit on climate change. Like his
Chinese counterpart, President Obama spoke about the importance of
the issue, but did not discuss numbers. He called the
global warming threat “urgent” and talked about bills in the US
House of Representatives to cap emissions and set new vehicle
standards. However, no details were given for the new UN agreement to
be signed in Copenhagen this December. For more information, click
