Kyoto Accord? Two door or four door?

In a short article in the American Thinker website we find the following data for the years 1997 to 2004:

If we look at that data and compare 2004 (latest year for which data is available) to 1997 (last year before the Kyoto treaty was signed), we find the following:

  • Emissions worldwide increased 18.0%.
  • Emissions from countries that signed the treaty increased 21.1%.
  • Emissions from non-signers increased 10.0%.
  • Emissions from the U.S. increased 6.6%.

The Excel spreadsheet from which this was developed is available here .
