European Union Finally Agrees with CEI: Kyoto Protocol Has Failed | CEI
“It’s a few years late, but it’s great to see the European Union finally acknowledge that the Kyoto Protocol has failed,” said Myron Ebell, Director of Energy and Global Warming Policy at the Competitive Enterprise Institute. “CEI said Kyoto couldn’t possibly work after it was first negotiated in 1997, and we have been pointing out ever since that it was failing to reduce emissions and wasting huge sums of money even while failing. As negotiations on a new global warming treaty continue, I hope that when the European Union presents its next hare-brained scheme to save the planet from global warming, people will remember how wrong the EU was about Kyoto.”Climate change [allegedly] bugs climbers on Everest | Gadling.com
