Bush: 'Significant progress' on climate change
http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20080709/ap_on_re_as/bush_g8

"In order to address climate change, all major economies must be at the table, and that's what took place today," We made clear, and the other nations agreed, that they must also participate in an ambitious goal," Bush said, "with an interim goal, with interim plans to enable the world to successfully address climate change. And we made significant progress toward a comprehensive approach. The leaders couldn't agree on additional specific numerical targets, though. And not everybody signed onto the 2050 goal.


So they agreed that sometime in the future but certainly a long time from when their leadership of their country ends that some future leader of that country might start to work towards a goal of reducing CO2 emissions towards an undetermined goal. But not everyone signed on to the idea. Wow way to not impress me at all.
