Tony blair on Kyoto
I think if we are going to get action on this, we have got to start from the brutal honesty about the politics of how we deal with it. The truth is no country is going to cut its growth or consumption substantially in the light of a long-term environmental problem.
Which is exactly my point.
Kyoto will fall apart right when you need it to hold together UNLESS you take a much more serious aproach. Unfortunately I think the current set of environmentalists and countries like the EU just dont have the "balls" to construct that sort of hard headed policy.
