Pew Center: Kyoto is Merely Symbolic
Posted by Amy Ridenour  ·  16 February 2005  ·  Climate

The February 16 Washington Post has this quote about the Kyoto global warming treaty:

"The greatest value is symbolic," said Eileen Claussen, president of the Pew Center on Global Climate Change.
No doubt that's just what the citizens of the countries that ratified it want to hear.

Nothing like losing your job or paying more for necessities in service of a symbol.
