Best and Worst PerformersI caught a little on climate change performance on the scroll on the bottom of the screen on one of the news channels Monday evening. I searched without success yesterday to see if I could find more about it, but today I hit the jackpot. A German policy group called Germanwatch prepares an annual Climate Change Performance Index. As you might expect, the USA doesn't look very good, coming in 53rd out of 56 countries.

The measures used to determine best and worst performers do not include a very simple measure; the change in GHG emmissions since the Kyoto Protocol was signed. By that measure the US is far better the the EU, Japan, Asia and India. Talk is cheap. Performance should be measured by real reductions in GHG not intentions or rhetoric.
