According to FT in 10 July 2008, in this time, G8 Summit had 3 big issues, global warming, oil price and food price. The main topic which people paid the biggest attention was whether G8 could agree to halve the emission of CO2 or not. As a result, we cannot say the agreement was enough. G8 fialed to persue India and China which insisted that depeloped countries should lead this problem and reduce the emission 85 - 90% from 19??. Wow...
According to FT in 8 July 2008, G8 contries discussed various political issues in the world. I found 3 points about that. (1)There is a limitation to stop rising oil price for G8 contories , so we have to put the end of the dependence to the crude oil. (2)We have to promote free to trade the bio fuel. (3)We hope strong Dollers for world economy. Addisionally the topic we have attension the most is whether G8 could reach an agreement to reduce emission of CO2 to combat global climate change. The key point is "mid*term target". If US agrees the mid*term target, surprisingly China and India would agree the reduction for 2050 halving emission.
