EU forces stricter emissions

The European Commission have forced the Labour government to revert to its original lower limit of 736 million tonnes of carbon dioxide emissions for 2005-07, rather than the increased figure of 756 million tonnes that it had asked for in October.

This is good news. It is ridiculous for Britain to talk up international action, while failing to carry through the same policies domestically.
