JUNE 15, 2001 Leaders of the 15 European Union countries on Thursday said they will implement a global warming treaty without the support of the United States and President Bush. With Bush at his side, Swedish Prime Minister Goran Persson said the nations go ahead will implement the 1997 Kyoto Protocol, which calls on signatories to reduce emissions of gases thought to contribute to global warming. The Clinton administration signed the treaty as well, but the Senate refuse to ratify because, among other issues, it lacked provisions affecting developing countries. Bush has subequently said he will not pursue the agreement because it was "fatally flawed." While he supports addressing global warming, he is proposing more study to develop economically and scientifically sound solutions. Get the Story:
