Australian PM floats better climate change ideas than “Euro-centric” Kyoto

Good Australian Prime Minister John Howard’s good non-Euro-centric enviro plans will be shot down by brainwashed, blinkered Euroliberal suckups from North American and the world in 5… 4… 3… 2…

Australia’s Howard plans Asia-Pacific Kyoto successor

Howard said the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) summit, to be held in Sydney, would be an historic opportunity to build consensus on a post-Kyoto deal embracing developed economies and emerging heavyweights India and China.

“The Kyoto model—top-down, prescriptive, legalistic and Euro-centric—simply won’t fly in a rising Asia-Pacific region,” Howard told an Asia Society Australasia dinner.

“No country, least of all rising economic superpowers like China and India, is going to embrace measures that imperil these objectives. The post-Kyoto template needs to be more bottom-up, cooperative and flexible.”

Canada, which like Australia relies on Greenhouse-heavy commodity exports, had agreed to work with Canberra on a post-Kyoto APEC deal, The Australian newspaper said on Thursday.

Howard, a close U.S. ally and Bush confidante, had talked to his Canadian counterpart Stephen Harper before backing Bush’s opposition to firm Greenhouse Gas reduction targets in the leadup to this week’s G8 summit in Germany.

Since hypocritical liberals are still driving their cars and flying in Virgin Airways jets and heating their homes exactly as much as ever before, even liberals don’t buy into the ridiculous Kyoto deal. They just say they do so they can feel better about themselves.
