		<description><![CDATA[The Kyoto Protocol is an obvious failure in its mandate to enjoin countries to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions. In fact, and quite ironically, ‘global carbon-dioxide emissions have grown by 25% since the protocol was adopted in 1997.’ There are glaring reasons why the soon-to-expire Kyoto Protocol did not succeed. This treaty left out of [...]]]></description>
