Tony Blair's Greenhouse Gas Emissions Failure

Tony Blair's policies often lean toward environmentalism, and he is happy to tell other governments to improve their environmental action, but his Labor Party in the UK will likely fail to reach their own environmental goals. Blair hoped to cut the 1990 levels of greenhouse gas emissions by 20% before 2010, but research has shown it will be more like 15%.
Government accused of pitiful failure to meet target for greenhouse gas emissions
"Scientists, environmental campaigners and opposition politicians yesterday issued a scathing response to the government's admission that it will fail to meet a key target to cut greenhouse gas pollution. They called the results of an 18-month review of climate change policies "pitiful" and accused ministers of lacking the political will to tackle global warming.
Margaret Beckett, the environment secretary, confirmed that measures to reduce emissions are now projected to cut UK carbon dioxide pollution by 15%-18% below 1990 levels by 2010. The government had pledged to reduce it by 20%." Guardian
