Poor countries voice climate concerns 1/25/07

The main point:

Developing countries stand to suffer the worst effects of global warming, and should not have to pay for a problem created mainly by the rich, executives and experts said on Thursday.

At a gathering of 2,400 of the world's most powerful people at Davos, a ski resort in the Swiss Alps, leaders from emerging nations said they wanted the United States, European Union and others in the West to be more accountable for the heat-trapping emissions their cars and factories produce.

My thoughts:

Developing countries will surely be the first to go or at least suffer the worst effects of global warming. I imagine we will see evidence of this in the first page release of the IPCC's report on global warming and climate change on February 2nd.

What do you think?
