The Kyoto Protocol became law in February 2005-- eight years after its conception as a framework for reducing emissions and a full four years after the United States abandoned it. But while President George W. Bush embarrassed much of the scientific community by challenging the veracity of the greenhouse effect, and thus the impetus for Kyoto, officials elsewhere expressed far different concerns. "Reading the Kyoto Protocol" explores their qualms and objections to everything from Kyoto's controversial policies on emissions trading to the question of a "post-Kyoto era." Contributors include internationally known philosophers, researchers, and environmentalists.Vermeersch, Etienne is the author of 'Reading the Kyoto Protocol Ethical Aspects of the Convention on Climatic Change', published 2005 under ISBN 9789059720640 and ISBN 9059720644.
