At the UN conference in the Hague, environmental groups are accusing the US of seeking loopholes to avoid cutting pollution. The conference opened to set rules for reducing harmful gases released into the atmosphere. One major issue revolved around how much countries could trade off against their commitments to roll back their own pollution by helping other countries reduce theirs or by planting new forests to absorb greenhouse gases. The US advocates unlimited emissions trading, but the EU and some developing countries fear it will defeat the effort to force the biggest polluters to change their ways. The US argues that emissions trading is the most cost-effective way to meet the global target of reducing greenhouse gases by 5.2% from 1990 levels, and would give time for the transition to cleaner energy and expensive new technologies. About 6,000 bureaucrats, scientists, environmentalists and businessmen attended the opening. That number was expected to grow to 10,000 during the second week with the arrival of 100 government ministers for the culmination of negotiations. Months of talks have preceded the conference. Three years ago at Kyoto, governments drew up targets for rolling back emissions of carbon-based gases but could not agree on the details. Europe agreed to cut emissions by 8%, the US by 7% and Japan by 6%. Each was allowed to decide how it would make the required reductions. So far, 30 countries have ratified the Kyoto Protocol. Mexico is the most industrialized country on the list, and none is among the heaviest polluting countries. The agreement needs the ratification of 55 countries, representing at least 55% of the harmful emissions, before it will come into force. [IMAGE] Enerfax Daily? -? Page 7? -?
