Posted at 2:07 PM on 20 Nov 2007

Take it away, Yvo de Boer of the U.N. Framework Convention on Climate Change: "Industrialized countries' overall greenhouse-gas emissions rose to a near all-time high in 2005. Greenhouse-gas emissions between 1990 and 2000 went down, but then between 2000 and 2005 they increased again, by 2.6 percent." Oy. Bali can't come soon enough.
