Climate Change and the G8 Summit

Back in April, we alerted readers to the possibility that a major announcement on international climate change policy might be in the offing for the G8 Summit in Scotland this July. This morning, the following ran on the BBC:

Energy experts from the world's leading economies will join a two-day workshop at Oxford University to find solutions to the global warming crisis.

The scientists will present the fruits of their deliberations to a meeting of the G8 of key industrialised nations in Gleneagles in Scotland in July.

Tony Blair has made tackling climate change a priority of his G8 leadership.

And nuclear energy is sure to be on the agenda.

Thanks to reader Brian Spears for the pointer.
