The got very serious in Marrakech
VII Climate Change in Marrakech. The conference concluded with the last minute agreement. The agreement was thought to be easily achievable, but Japan, Canada and Russia, one after the other, put on the table a series of unacceptable demands that until the last hour had been without the right solution. Finally, Japan retreated and the European Union approved setting the absorption capacity of Russian forests at 33 megatonnes. This resulted in the agreement.
Representatives from 180 countries expressed satisfaction at the end of the conference with the implementation of the Kyoto protocol. However, some experts have reported that these conferences only ratify the approved and that in some cases there have been delays. In addition, it must be remembered that the United States does not sign these agreements, so the world's greatest pollutant follows its path. This year, the United States has experienced the largest increase in gas emissions in the last decade, with 3.1%.
