Read this interesting article published on the guardian, giving a round up of 2006 events related to Climate Change. The article focuses on UK doings, but also on global affairs, and criticises the Labour government for promising much but doing little. Though such criticism might be quite fair, it should be pointed to other governments who should lead the way and set the policies straight.
Two examples?
US plans for over 150 new coal-fired power station, China for 550.
What's more, Australia, a major industrialised countries which rejected Kyoto is currently suffering from severe drought, with climate projections suggesting that this can only get worse. It is maybe the first 'Climatic revenge' to record, where one of the no-doers themselves is suffereing from its own inaction.
The Guardian article is titled: The year the world woke up
