The pundits that people here see or hear the most (television, radio, etc.) seem to take it for granted that none of the Kyoto Protocol targets have been met by the countries that signed it. I won't comment about what I think of pundits. But I thought I recently saw a table of figures that would indicate that there were many countries that had exceeded the targets (for carbon emission reductions) and many who had failed but had come close. I also don't recall where the figures came from. Does someone know something objective about those figures and if they may be fairly accurate?
