The New York Times Reports on the Argentina Kyoto Enactment Shindig

A very brief write-up on the conference/party/networking occasion in Buenos Aires. Cheers, and Concern, for New Climate Pact

One premise that the NYT couldn't ignore is how the USA is sitting out the Kyoto accord and how that may implicate the proceedings as well as cause problems for US companies operating in, for example, Europe.

I cannot imagine that this statement is an accurate portrayal of the conference, but I wasn't there. "There are essentially three camps in the climate debate reflected in discussions here: those welcoming the Kyoto pact; those opposed to an internationally set cap on emissions; and the world's poorest countries and native cultures, which fear they will be the first to bear the consequences of climate shifts they did little to bring about.
