It's just after 1 a.m. in Bali. Negotiations at the UN climate conference were supposed to have wrapped up hours ago but talks have been extended and things are now deadlocked.
Canadian negotiators have reignited their efforts at blocking emission reduction targets for developed countries in the final text of an agreement.
Meanwhile, the U.S. is doing the same thing in a session involving developing countries and countries that haven't signed on to the Kyoto Protocol.
Both Canada and the U.S. are blocking the inclusion of an absolute emissions reduction target of 25 to 40 per cent for developed countries.
There appears to be no end in sight.
It could be a very long night.

Yay Canada and the U.S. !!!!!
Why the hell should we restrict our emissions when China sure won't, even if they said they would ?.

I would like to tell our poligicians (and they know who they are) that MADE IN CHINA made China because there were no unions in that beautiful part of the planet.
Bush cannot hide behind China nor India. All our garbage goes there and they make stuff for us to sell in stores over here. No unions, no rules. How convenient for share holders.
They are removing MADE IN from out items now.
WONDER WHY!!??
Thanks and enjoy the lovely Indonesians and their interesting culture!
They are the most wonderful people!
Beautiful Bali!

After reading the my last comment, I would like to make three corrections.
All of our garbage does not go to China, just boat loads of it.
MADE IN from out items should read from our items.
culture should be cultures:
The Indonesians have many cultures along with their many religions.
Take care.
