NEWS - Blair Calls for Zero Emission

Blair urges binding gas cuts by all countries.

From: The Age March 16

"We have reached the critical moment for the decision on climate change," Blair told a meeting of senior officials from the world's top 20 greenhouse gas emitters in suburban Tokyo.

"Even on the mildest application of precautionary principles, failure to act on climate change now would be deeply and unforgivably irresponsible," he said......

"The emissions in the richer nations will have to fall close to zero and those in the poorer countries will have to, over time, fall as they industrialise," Blair said.
