Interesting - One side says yes, all on target - another side says no, way off target. Who to believe ?
Also, we have the "Western" countries generally trying to reduce, whilst there are a mass of newly industrialised countries rushing headlong into uncontrolled pollution creating scenarios. I think that every little bit helps so we have to keep forcing the issues
