Indias climate change views not fully incorporated
K. Venugopal Sapporo: Leaders of 16 of the world's major economies meeting at the venue of the G8 summit at Toyako in northern Japan found enough common language to take forward their negotiations on how to mitigate the challenge of climate change. Yet it was not quite the language that India would have liked. Prime Minister Manmohan Singh said as much when he told the leaders, including U.S. President George Bush, that "even if some of our views have not been incorporated as we would have wished, we should adopt the text as it is.'
