From the supplier: The regulation of carbon dioxide emissions under the Kyoto Protocol will have severe consequences on US businesses despite assurances by the Clinton government. The forced reduction of emissions would ravage not only the utilities but also other sectors, such as the aluminum and iron smelting, automobile, paper and pulp, and oil refining industries. Worse, only the US may suffer because other countries, particularly developing ones such as China and Brazil, may decide not to comply with the provisions of the Kyoto Protocol. They resist emissions trading and do not want their energy use curtailed to reduce their carbon dioxide emissions. Despite these, it appears that the protocol will be enforced soon enough, with the next round of talks to take place in Buenos Aires. Fines and sanctions are expected to be established there.
