Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow.
The environmental movement is losing
Of course, reading the papers this morning it's clear that China is being presented as the 'bad' guy in all this. Again, it's utter bollocks. As I said earlier, there was no way the US was going to sign up to anything that damaged US economic recovery.

Cock-up, not conspiracy. But a cock-up that quite a few people are perfectly happy about, nevertheless.
