Russia is on board with Kyoto, Big Time, because it requires reductions from consumption levels at a date just before the fall of the Soviet Union. CO2 emissions in Russia have fallen dramatically since then, leaving Russia as one of the few countries who is already below their Kyoto target. Thus Russia has carbon credits to sell, and the whole World will have to pay whatever price the Russians demand.

Well, isn't that... convenient...

Oh, and the Chinese are on board with Kyoto, because under Kyoto, they can do whatever they damn well please, and emit as much as they like. It is only the productive capacity of the industrialized West that will be gutted. Leaving the Chinese as the only remaining producer of consumer goods, for which they will be able to demand any price they like.

Convenience on top of convenience, wouldn't you say?
