A compromise seems to be reached: implementation at a later date for developing countries and the revenue going back to help action in the aviation sector.
I agree that climate should be covered more but am not sure if US and UK media are picking up more skeptics stories than ours. Maybe so, at least on the web, skeptics arguments are very popular.
It is one thing not to agree with the approach but it is another thing to drag their legs. If this is such a huge problem, those countries, incl Japan, should take their own ambitious actions on the sector.
