The "Bali roadmap" initiates a two-year process of negotiations designed
to agree a new set of emissions targets to replace those in the Kyoto
Protocol.

I realy don't see any serious progress here, all talk and no action. So
in two years time we'll have another go at setting emissions targets,
what a cop out! Lets face it the human race will not act on this one and
I bet all these deligates will get bonus's for their part in these
negotiations. "Reward for failure" ~ Mmm, sounds familiar.? Bali's a
nice place for a jolly all the same!

If my understandings correct, even the uk has failed in reaching it's
own targets over the past few years, and although reduced emissions on
paper as a Country we have increased them in 'real-terms', spin is the
term I think we use. You've oonly got to sit in those ever increasing
traffic jams in the SE everyday, to know it's getting worse by the day.
Lets face it, we just ain't taking this seriously, no one has any
answers or the 'balls' to stand up and be counted. The speed of this
change I fear is unprecidented in the planets history and we are on the
road to disaster, so I guess there's no point worrying about and just
carry on as though nothing is changing, anyway, it's someone else's
problem isn't it!

Well, let's sit back and watch the American disater movie unfold., it'll
make good viewing figures in the ratings.

Failed once again.
