I am so hopeful with Mr. Gore giving the keynote in Bali next month at the UN summit on climate change! I have been hoping and asking that he do this. And it will be just days after his Nobel acceptance. I really do have a good feeling about this, and that this will be the catalyst for a global change taking place. And I agree with Mr. Gore that calling it 'Kyoto" may give a negative connotation to it so it should be named something totally different. And I am also hoping that any treaty forged there takes into account that those nations that are polluting the most and that have caused the effects of this should contribute more than others in footing the bill to mitigate what they have done and continue to do, and that includes China. While I believe this must be a global effort, I do not believe that Africa and other parts of the world that have not contributed to the effects of this crisis should be penalized, especially since they are feeling the worst effects of it due to our behavior. I hope to see a fair treaty and one that truly looks to the scientific facts rather than trying to appease certain political interests.

    • Thank you for that link. I only had part of the transcript. He will hold their feet to the fire, and I am so grateful to him for doing that as we all should be holding the feet of those in this government to that same fire as well.

    • You will be very moved by Mr. Gore's speech late September at the UN summit. Click this link, go to lower left corner, click word "English" next to little videocamera, and fast forward to Minute 35, where the Polish president is introducing him. Twenty minutes that should make all world leaders sweat - and get into gear if they have any soul whatsoever.
