All Over: Kyoto Protocol Loses Four Big Nations

DEAUVILLE,
France: Russia, Japan and Canada told the G8 they would not join a second round
of carbon cuts under the Kyoto Protocol at United Nations talks this year and
the US reiterated it would remain outside the treaty, European diplomats have
said.
The
future of the Kyoto Protocol has become central to efforts to negotiate reductions
of carbon emissions under the UN’s Framework Convention on Climate Change,
whose annual meeting will take place in Durban, South Africa, from November 28
to December 9.
Developed
countries signed the Kyoto Protocol in 1997. They agreed to legally binding
commitments on curbing greenhouse gas emissions blamed for global warming.
Those
pledges expire at the end of next year. Developing countries say a second round
is essential to secure global agreements.
But
the leaders of Russian, Japan and Canada confirmed they would not join a new
Kyoto agreement, the diplomats said.
They
argued that the Kyoto format did not require developing countries, including
China, the world’s No. 1 carbon emitter, to make targeted emission cuts.
At
last Thursday’s G8 dinner the US President, Barack Obama, confirmed Washington
would not join an updated Kyoto Protocol, the diplomats said.
The
US, the second-largest carbon emitter, signed the protocol in 1997 but in 2001
the then president, George W. Bush, said he would not put it to the Senate for
ratification.
Agence
France-Press, 29 May 2011
AND...
KYOTO- WHY SHOULD CANADA SIGN- WHEN THE BIGGEST ABUSERS REFUSE??
Why
won't USA SIGN KYOTO? as well as -
RUSSIA, CHINA, JAPAN ETC?
Nowitzki
They
are only thinking of national benefits.
In 2008, total global output was 24.1 billion
tons, of which the United States accounted for 19.2%, China 22.1%, the EU 13%,
Russia 5.5%, and Japan 4.0%
In United States 18.6 ton per caput, China 4.9
ton, Germany 9.4 ton, Russia 11.4 ton , and Japan 9.3 ton.
EU and Japan are hard to reduce CO2 by a large
margin to advance energy-conservation technology .
.
Without US and China, That would be pointless.
When all is said and done, isn't it the United
States-which vaunts itself as the most "morally righteous" nation in
the world and stands in judgment over other nations-which is actually the most
morally irresponsible nation in the world?
-------------
Not
all countries of the world signed the Kyoto Protocol. The countries that did
sign it together account for 55% of the world's greenhouse gas emissions.
However, the country that emits the most greenhouse gases, the United States,
did not agreed to sign the Kyoto Protocol. In 2001, United States President
George W. Bush decided that the US would not participate. Large developing
countries such as India, China, and Brazil are not required to make changes
either.
Why
won't USA SIGN KYOTO?

AND...
The
US cannot sign the Kyoto protocol or anything similar. There is a piece of Law
expressly forbidding it... the Byrd-Hagel Resolution.
Signing
the treaty does not mean that a country commits to making any reductions in
emissions. If a country 'signs' the agreement then they agree to provide annual
reports of their emissions... no more than that.
Only if a country has signed the treaty AND
signed Annex I do they commit to making any reductions. Of the 191 countries
that have signed the treaty only 39 have committed to attempting any emissions
reduction under the provisions of Annex I.
A country can sign the Treaty but not sign
Annex I. For example, China and India have both signed the Treaty, but neither
has signed Annex I. They are therefore not committed to making any emission
reductions.
AND...
1)
The whole world did not sign it
2) Wikipedia is not a reliable source for
*anything*, but especially not for anything political...and AGW is highly
political
3) AGW is a fraud...the science is terrible
4) The cost of limiting carbon emissions would
have been astronomical...$2280 trillion over the next 90 yrs by the latest
study... maybe 10x more according to ex EPA economist Alan Carlin
5) It wouldn't do any good anyway, CO2 doesn't
drive the climate
"You could go outside and spit and have
the same effect as doubling carbon dioxide" -Dr. Reid Bryson, the most
cited climate scientist in the world
AND...
Warmists
cannot understand decisions like these because they think actually think AGW is
about having a good environment. (and they call deniers dumb)
The Kyoto protocol is literally about giving
Global Socialists the power to steal from American industry.
It's international Cap & Trade - a
methodology to separate the profits from anyone using/selling fossil fuels.
Canada has recently withdrawn as the
development of their Oil Sands promised vast profits for the Kyoto Yakuza
Yahoos to steal. Canadian are mostly OK with Americans being fiscally raped,
but a lot more reluctant to grab their own ankles in the name of Carbon
control.
Ok, fine I'm a lying Republican Earth hating
denier hopelessly corrupted by greed...
So why didn't those shining beacons of
environmental compassion know as Obama & the Democrats sign in when they
had complete control of America's Government? Wasn't Obama going to stop the
Oceans rise?
Makes no sense environmentally right? Is Obama
is retarded? Is he a closet Republican?
Absolutely not.
You see Obama IS a Socialist & all for
Socialists robbing businessmen, just not for International Socialists robbing
HIS businessmen. Understand?
American Capitalists must of course hand over
their profits to atone for the sin personal success, but those profits must buy
Democrat votes from the Occupy Wall Street parasites here at home - they don't
do Obama a damn bit of good planting carbon credit trees in Africa.
Hope this clears things up for you.
AND..
COMMENT:
You
do realize that Canada just pulled out of the Kyoto treaty so they would not be
punished for failure to meet emission levels even when they only contribute 2%
of all green house gases. You also do realize that a lot of the information
coming from the AGW crowd is just hilarious. I was listening off and on to
Democracy NOW during the latest talks and one of the things that I found funny
is that sea levels will magically raise by a meter in the next 60 years. Our
current sea level rise is between 2 to 4 mm from 1 to 3 mm a year. To raise a
full meter in 60 years we will have to have sea level rise average a little
over 16 mm a year which is 4 times the current rate. You do also realize that
the poorest of the poor Nations are looking for permanent handouts instead of
hand ups
AND..
Because
we are smarter than those idiots that signed it and are now trying to back out
of it. Because it's a costly, economy destroying, useless, sovereignty
threatening, con-game.
But I believe --- and I'm not taking time to
look it up --- but I think Bill Clinton actually DID sign it. But it means
nothing without Senate approval. Thank Goodness.
Why do you want to give taxpayer's money away
to a bunch of socialist/commies?
I take it Mohan that you trust that
hate-America club called the U.N. --- Do you remember "Oil for Food"
--- I'll tell you there is more love for America in the Kremlin than in that
pit of hissing snakes called the U.N..
Watch these and learn something:
The Great Global Warming Swindle
Global
Warming Doomsday Called Off
AND...
Because
we are not stupid enough to further cripple our economy.
Some economist predicted the current global
recesison based on provisions in the Kyoto protocol. Looks like they were
right.
Because Kyoto added restrictions to us but
left some of our primary economic compeditors out of any restrictions. this
would have driven ADDITIONAL jobs from our country. Weakened our economy
further and generally wreaked havoc.
Because ANY treaty structured as Kyoto was
will create more human misery without ANY measureable benefits to show for it.
AND..
China
did not sign on to it and think how much more money they have on account of it.
A lot of the countries now see that it was a money making racket by the UN and
are pulling out.
AND...
COMMENT:
Because
it was political BS that didn't accomplish anything, like limit China. The
Canadians are pulling out now, we just had a little more foresight.
AND..
What
good is it? China and India are not even part of it. So why should the US be
apart of it. Is the government in Canada that slow they can not see how poor
this thing is?
AND..
For
a lot of reasons, one of which is that it allows the creation of an UNEVEN
playing field whereby other countries do NOT have to adhere to the same
environmental standards as we would have to. What, so their pollution is not as
"bad" as ours? Did you ever voluntarily go into a fight (physical or
economic) with one hand tied behind your back?

Voice
of Russia
Russia
will not renew its commitment to the Kyoto Protocol.
Moscow
won’t join the second phase of the Kyoto Protocol, which starts on January 1st
2013.
Russia
decided to discontinue its participation in the protocol because the world’s
major producers of greenhouse gases – the United States, China and India – are
still refusing to commit themselves to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
Because
of that, Russian leaders say, the Kyoto Protocol, which came into force seven
years ago, had no impact on the rate of global warming.
Voice

Ukraine,
Belarus May Join Russia to Shun Kyoto
Ukraine
may join Russia in shunning the extended Kyoto Protocol after United Nations
envoys approved a text the two nations didn’t agree with, according to the
Centre for European Policy Studies in Brussels.
Ukraine,
the eastern European nation located in the natural-gas trading corridor between
the EU and Russia, is listed in a Dec. 8 text outlining the conclusions of
climate talks held in Doha as agreeing to cut its emissions by 20 percent of
1990 levels by 2020. They had already fallen by 60 percent in 2010, according
to data published by the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change in Bonn on
Nov. 16.
Another
section of the Doha text would cancel any surplus sovereign emissions permits
for the eight years through 2020 above the average annual emissions of the
country in the three years through 2010. That clause may in effect require
Ukraine, Belarus and other nations outside the EU while joining Kyoto to take a
smaller cap, according to Norton Rose LLP. Russia has said it won’t join
Kyoto’s extension. Regulatory uncertainty drove UN offset prices to record lows
this week.
“Ukraine
and Belarus are less likely to ratify the second commitment period of the Kyoto
Protocol” because they object to the text, Andrei Marcu, senior adviser to the
Centre for European Policy Studies in Brussels, said yesterday in a report on
the Doha talks. CEPS advises on government policy.

Kyoto
good as dead...and Harper was right to kill it
By Lorrie Goldstein ,Toronto Sun
Tuesday,
January 01, 2013 11:06 AM MST
Stephen
Harper Stephen Harper. (ANDRE FORGET/QMI AGENCY)
As
of today, the Kyoto protocol is a zombie treaty.
It's
a corpse that keeps moving, but it's dead.
Kyoto
died Monday at midnight when the greenhouse gas cuts it set for 37
industrialized nations between 2008 and 2012 expired.
But,
just like the walking dead, it rose from the grave Tuesday because 195
countries at a UN conference in Doha, Qatar last month agreed to pretend it's
still alive.
They
"extended" Kyoto, pending the ratification of a new treaty by 2015,
to take effect in 2020.
In
other words, they kicked the zombie down the road for a few more years, while
agreeing to maintain the fiction among themselves that Kyoto is a
"global" emissions treaty, when it actually covers only 15% of global
emissions.
Indeed,
because Kyoto made no demands on the developing world, where emissions are
rising the fastest, global emissions increased throughout the period covered by
the treaty.
Canada
withdrew from Kyoto last month, having given its obligatory one-year notice
last December.
In
doing so, Prime Minister Stephen Harper and the Conservatives finally corrected
the huge and reckless blunder Jean Chretien and the Liberals committed by
signing on to Kyoto in 1998.
How
Chretien, as the leader of a large, cold, northern, oil-exporting country,
could have committed Canada to an emissions treaty that excluded the U.S. and
required nothing of China, defies explanation to this day.
Even
Chretien's top political aide, Eddie Goldenberg, has since admitted that when
the Liberals signed Kyoto, they knew they couldn't implement its target of
cutting our emissions by an average of 6% below 1990 levels between 2008 and
2012.
The
proof of that lies in the fact that by the time the Liberals were tossed from
power in 2006, Canada's emissions were 30% above the Kyoto target to which
Chretien had agreed.
That
meant the new Conservative government would have had to wreck the Canadian
economy to achieve Chretien's unattainable goal.
Harper
finally stopped paying lip service to this ridiculous idea a year ago, when
Environment Minister Peter Kent announced Canada was withdrawing from Kyoto.
That
was the first sensible thing a Canadian government had done on this issue in 13
years.
While
Canada continues to participate in negotiations to craft a new global emissions
treaty, the danger is that all the problems that made Kyoto such a disaster
remain in place.
It
still makes no sense for Canada to agree to any international treaty to reduce
its emissions unless the U.S. and China are on board.
And
it still makes no sense for Canada to contribute billions of dollars to help
developing nations reduce their emissions, unless those nations first commit to
lowering their emissions.
In
the real world, which rarely intrudes into political discussions about Kyoto,
no significant reduction in global greenhouse gases can begin until China and
the U.S., the world's two top emitters, dramatically reduce their reliance on
coal to produce electricity.
By
comparison, the development of Canada's oil sands is insignificant.
The
oil sands represent about one-tenth of 1% of global emissions and Canada, as a
whole, produces 2% of global emissions, compared to 21% for China and 19% for
the U.S.
Given
that reality, we simply can't afford to be as stupid on this issue as Chretien
was, ever again.
Goldstein:
As of today, the Kyoto protocol is a zombie treaty. It's a corpse that keeps

Foreign
Affairs Minister John Baird has reason to call the United Nations to account
By
Michael Den Tandt, Postmedia News May 2, 2013
Foreign
Affairs Minister John Baird addresses the 67th session of the United Nations
General Assembly at UN headquarters last October.

If
Paul Heinbecker didn’t exist, the opposition Liberals, New Democrats and Greens
would have to manufacture him in a lab.
From
his perch on the op-ed pages of the Globe and Mail, or on the airwaves of the
CBC, this most august of retired Canadian diplomats regularly casts
thunderbolts at the Harper government, more in sadness than in anger. Worldly
and world-weary, Heinbecker knows – simply knows, to his core – that the Harper
government’s foreign policy, especially its frostiness towards the United
Nations, is inept, harmful to Canada’s standing in the world, and, well, just
plain stupid.
“To
put it bluntly,” Heinbecker declared in the Globe last month, “it is a major mistake to simply write off
the institutions our parents and grandparents created, as if the current or
next generation would have the wit, wisdom and will to do better.”
Now,
in a development sure to fuel the fire, there’s a move afoot to transplant the
International Civil Aviation Organization, a UN agency based in Montreal since
1947, to Qatar. The impetus, reportedly, is Arab unhappiness with Canada’s
Middle-East policies.
But
here’s a thought. What if Heinbecker & Co. are mostly mistaken about the
sanctity, value and essential unimpeachability of the UN? And what if Foreign
Affairs Minister John Baird, purveyor of crass moral absolutes in a diplomatic
world more comfortable with nuance, is mostly correct? More to the point,
politically: What if Baird’s view much more closely reflects popular sentiment,
than does Heinbecker’s?
It
is a staple of Liberal and New Democrat messaging that the Harper Conservatives
have trashed Canada’s formerly stellar reputation in the world (which was never
as stellar as the myth would have it) by, among other things, unequivocally
supporting the state of Israel, as opposed to maintaining the fig leaf of
honest brokerhood; cutting off diplomatic ties with Iran’s theocratic
dictatorship, as opposed to pretending to engage with it; walking away from
blue-helmeted peacekeeping, in favour of peacemaking; and denouncing
international human rights violators, including the governments of Iran, North
Korea and Sri Lanka, in stark terms.
Proof
of this decline is found, triumphantly, in the growing trickle of UN
“rapporteurs” making the long trek to Canada, here to report in icy,
disappointed tones on this country’s egregious failings — compared with, say,
Greece, or Zimbabwe. Last summer the UN’s Food Rapporteur from central casting,
Olivier De Schutter, spent 11 days in-country, then declared that 800,000
Canadian households lack adequate food. His solution to the emergency, buried
in the fine print of his report, was a massive increase in taxes.
And
more rapporteurs are on the way. The UN Special Rapporteur on the Rights of
Indigenous Peoples, the UN Committee on the Elimination of Discrimination
Against Women, and the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights all are Canada-bound
in the coming months. If history is any guide they too will unearth appalling
abuses that lay bare the cruelty and inhumanity at the heart of the Canadian
experience.
Taxpayers
will rightly wonder, when these reports touch down in Ottawa from the other
planet on which they are created, why the UN is spending precious resources in
this way, when people are starving or being bombed or butchered in various
places, such as Syria. For the record, Canada’s net contribution to the world
body for 2013 is $76 million US, according to UN documents. That compares with
$131.2 million from China, $142.5 million from France, $276 million from Japan,
and a whopping $618.5 million from the United States. Canada is the
seventh-largest contributor globally.
Now
here’s a question, which seems fair at a time when federal spending is under a
microscope: What will Canadians receive for those millions? How will that money
be spent? And why, come to think of it, has no individual, let alone the UN
apparatus as a whole, ever been called to account for its failures, which are
colossal — some would say criminal — in modern times?
There
was the massacre at Srebrenica, when UN troops stood by. There was the Rwandan
genocide, when UN troops stood by. More recently the UN Security Council has
proved itself utterly useless in confronting Syrian dictator Bashar Assad, who
has used heavy weapons and chemical weapons against his own people. If there is
intervention in Syria, it will be at the behest of the same crew that always intervenes,
if anyone does, to stop international barbarities: NATO, led by the Americans.
In
response to such failings, among others, Baird had this to say to the UN
General Assembly last October: “(Humanity) will judge our success by how well
we further the ends of prosperity, security, and human dignity. You measure
results by measuring the results. Not by weighing best efforts. Not by counting
good intentions. Not by calculating inputs.” It was his way of saying, in
language that left little room for misinterpretation: Just what are you
accomplishing with our $76 million?
That
may have been unusually blunt speech, for a diplomat. But destructive of
Canada’s international reputation? A fundamental breach with Canadian
tradition? Nonsense. Not anywhere outside the tiny bubble bordered by the
Chateau Laurier on one side and Bank Street on the other. Baird was expressing
what many Canadians think, but don’t often say. It’s part of what makes him an
effective foreign minister.

trois
mois, d'avril à Juillet 1994, un million de personnes furent méthodiquement
exterminées au Rwanda. Leur unique crime était d'être né Tutsi. Nous avions
quinze ans lorsque nous avons vu ces images à la télévision un jour d'Avril
1994. Ces images de barbaries semblaient incompréhensibles. Des Africains se
battaient à coup de machettes et on nous parlait de haines ancestrales, de
massacre inter ethnique, de guerre tribale. Nous avions quinze ans et nous ne
comprenions pas que cette histoire était aussi la nôtre. Pourtant c'était un
génocide, et il avait lieu sous nos yeux.
Quelques
années plus tard, nous avons entendu les premières accusations portées contre
l'Etat français. La France semblait avoir joué un rôle dans cette histoire.
Certains parlaient même de complicité. Nous avons voulu en savoir plus.
Ce
film raconte le dernier génocide du vingtième siècle. Au Rwanda, il ne
s'agissait ni de barbarie ancestrale ni d'une soudaine explosion de violence,
mais d'une histoire politique et moderne. Ces hommes qui massacrent leurs
voisins sont avant tout des êtres humains. Nous avons voulu comprendre ce qui
était arrivé à l'humanité dans les collines du Rwanda.
La
haine raciale qui guidait les auteurs du génocide ne date pas de la nuit des
temps mais trouve son origine à la fin du dix-neuvième siècle. Alors que le
racisme moderne et ses théories pseudo-scientifiques naissent en Europe, des
explorateurs allemands pénètrent au Rwanda, le dernier territoire inexploré
d'Afrique. Ils y découvrent une société centralisée divisée en deux groupes :
les Hutu et les Tutsi. Les tutsi sont minoritaires et constituent une
aristocratie qui domine la majorité Hutu. Mais la frontière entre les deux
groupes n'est pas absolue. En montant dans la hiérarchie sociale, un Hutu peut
devenir un Tutsi. Habités par leurs théories raciales, les Allemands et les
Belges vont transformer ces deux groupes en deux races distinctes. Ils
façonneront ainsi chez les Rwandais eux-mêmes, une conception raciale jusque-là
inexistante.
Les
colons Belges se sont longtemps appuyé sur l'aristocratie Tutsi pour contrôler
le pays. Mais lorsque dans les années 1950, l'élite Tutsi est gagnée par les
idées indépendantistes, les Belges favorisent l'émergence d'un mouvement Hutu.
Ce mouvement aboutit en 1959 à la révolution sociale Hutu. Concrètement, des
leader Hutus renversent la monarchie Tutsi et s'emparent du pouvoir.
Cette
idéologie raciste sert de fondement à l'Etat Rwandais post colonial. Dès
l'indépendance les Tutsis sont victimes d'un véritable apartheid. Fuyant les
massacres et les persécutions, les Tutsi se réfugient par centaines de milliers
dans les pays voisins. Ils n'abandonneront jamais l'idée de revenir sur leur terre.
Après plusieurs tentatives de retour, ils créent dans les années 1980 une
organisation politico-militaire. Les exilés Tutsi ont désormais leur armée, le
front patriotique Rwandais : le FPR.
Le
1 er Octobre 1990, le FPR lance ses troupes à l'assaut du Rwanda et de son
régime Hutu. L'offensive du FPR connait un succès immédiat mais éphémère. Le
président Hutu du Rwanda, parvient à sauver la situation en obtenant
l'intervention de troupes françaises belges. Cette intervention européenne
permet aux soldats du régime Hutu de repousser les offensives du FPR.
Mais
la guerre ne fait que commencer et elle durera quatre ans....

INTERNET
UNDER ATTACK BY UNITED NATIONS
Canada
must stand firm
THE
technological revolution that is the Internet has expanded dramatically around
the world, served as catalyst for enormous entrepreneurial economic success and
spawned new, cyberspace-based communities that have forever changed communications
— all without government oversight.
Now,
however, the spectre of a digital iron curtain, as some observers have dubbed
it, threatens to split the Internet into two global zones.
The
first would be the freewheeling, mainly user-directed cyber-universe we know,
especially in the West, where free speech thrives and innovative thinking is
essentially unbounded.
The
second, however, would be a repressed, state-by-state controlled network — like
China and Iran today but worse — avoided by foreign content providers like
Google due to the high access fees charged by these regimes, where censorship
and surveillance are pervasive.
That
a UN organization, the International Telecommunications Union, is behind this
worrying development is no surprise. Like other UN bodies, the ITU, made up of
193 member nations, contains both democracies and authoritarian regimes.
At
the recent ITU conference in Dubai purportedly held to update global
telecommunications standards, Russia, China and other states hostile to human
rights and free speech spearheaded efforts to bring the Internet under UN
governance. That model would leave users with less, or no, voice in what
happens to the Net.
As
expected, Canada, the U.S., Britain and other Western-aligned countries rightly
refused to sign the new treaty as amended.
ITU
officials brazenly lied about their intentions, insisting before the summit
that all decisions would come by consensus. A vote on the controversial
treaty, however, was sprung on delegates in the midst of negotiations.
A
total of 89 countries signed the new accord; 55, including Canada, have not and
should not, unless all attempts by repressive regimes to lasso control of the
Internet are removed from the current text.
Unfortunately,
says Byron Holland, head of Canada’s Internet registry, this impasse has now
split the world, raising the possibility of a second, shadowy — and far more
repressed — Internet, endorsed by the UN.
