Hopenhagen negotiations suspended....
This is good news...
Negotiations at the UN climate summit have been suspended after developing countries withdrew their co-operation.
Delegations were angry at what they saw as moves by the Danish host government to sideline talks on more emission cuts under the Kyoto Protocol.
As news spread around the conference centre, activists chanted “We stand with Africa – Kyoto targets now”.

Great news. I hope all these money grubbing nations keep on protesting and I'll keep my money at home!
This is horrible news, does this mean we won't win more Fossil Awards now?
Can we get blamed for the walk-out?
What about the protests and arrests?
We must be held to account, someone contact the CBC or a Liberal spokesperson to blame the Federal government.
Well they at least got their first class flights to Copenhagen, really nice hotel rooms for 2 weeks, and apparently the danish hooker union is giving freebies to anyone with a badge, so they'll all have a hell of a nice vacation. To bad its Denmark though, Italian or French food would have been so much better.
Get Lizzy May and the Quebec & Ontario Enviro Ministers to a mic,
they will find a way to blame Harper.
Good to hear, the whole process is so flawed.
Canada getting the fossil awards is such Bullsh@t. No place in North America is doing more on this issue than BC. Last time I checked, the environment was a provincial issue.
The federal government is acting outside of its authority when it signs any international treaty dealing with the environment. The federal government constitutional has to get direction from the provinces on any environment issues.
The provinces are free to ban the automobiles, use of coal and manufacturing to reduce their carbon footprint.
The Federal Government should not sign any large scale transfer of money over Carbon contracts. The US has a track record of refusing to follow through and we should wait until the US Senate, Congress Passing a Bill to curb their use of Coal.
We make up less than 2% vs the US 20% so nothing we do matters if the US and developing countries continue to use cheaper forms of energy.
'Environmentalists' are welcome to starve while freezing in the dark right now, no need to wait for the rest of us.
