“Some significant news” on global warming, is what spokesman Tony Snow promised in today’s pre-G8 summit speech by President Bush.
The news? Meetings.
“The United States takes this issue seriously,” Bush said in a Washington speech. “The new initiative I am outlining today will contribute to the important dialogue that will take place in Germany next week.”
The mission is to set “a long-term global goal for reducing greenhouse gases.” The deadline is “by the end of next year.”
And that means meetings.
“To help develop this goal, the United States would convene a series of meetings of nations that produced most greenhouse gas emissions, including nations with rapidly growing economies like India and China,” Bush said.
