It would have been much more effective in reducing the developing-country emissions because of the Clean Development Mechanism that was part of it … There would have been a lot more incentive to get moving on the renewable energies and clean energies. But why did the U.S. take that position?

Well, it was because the industries had more influence on our government than the public good. The interest of a small number of people, the influence of money in Washington, and the fact that so many congressmen and administration are influenced by the fossil-fuel industry, which is huge. That’s why we need to try to draw attention to [the activities of that lobby], because otherwise they may continue to muddle the story enough that we fail to get the strong and rapid actions that we now need. Because now we’ve used up the time—we’re at the hairy edge right now. We have to make rapid changes.
