Kyoto Targets And Us Goods

EDM number 550 in 2000-01, proposed by Alan Simpson on 04/04/2001.

That this House believes President Bush is both reckless and wrong in his rejection of the Kyoto Protocol; recognises that international action has to reduce carbon emissions on a scale greater than the first stage of Kyoto targets if any impact is to be made on the accelerating rate of climate change; further recognises that, as the world's greatest polluter and consumer of energy, the USA has a duty to lead the way in pollution reduction rather than opting out of it; understands that President Bush is only responsive to measures which threaten American economic interests; and therefore welcomes actions taken by social and environmental movements to impose their own 'pollution tariffs' on the USA by boycotting American products in favour of ones produced on more sustainable economic terms.

This motion has been signed by a total of 52 MPs.
