U.S. Delegation Walks Out of Climate Talks Quote:
The Bush administration was sharply criticized by environmental groups for walking out of a round of informal discussions shortly after midnight that were aimed at finding new ways of curbing gases beyond steps taken so far.
The walkout was widely seen here as the capstone of two weeks of American efforts to prevent any fresh initiatives from being discussed.
"This shows just how willing the U.S. administration is to walk away from a healthy planet and its responsibilities to its own people," said Jennifer Morgan of the World Wildlife Fund.
| The Bush administration wouldn't even participate in "informal discussions ..aimed at finding new ways of curbing gases". Being that obstructionist is simply stupid diplomatically.
