U.S. opens dealings
global-warming iss
KYOTO, Japan (AP) — After two
years of preliminaries, the world’s
governments got down to the final
critical round of negotiations Mon
day on controlling energy use in the
21st century to protect the planet
against global warming.
In what promises to be 10 days of
hard bargaining, the United States
opened the bidding with a surprise
shift of position that cheered Japan,
dismayed Europe and put environ
mentalists on a green alert.
The Kyoto conference was con
vened to strengtJien tlie 1992 Cli
mate Change Treaty by setting
legally binding targets for reducing
industrial nations’ emissions of
carbon dioxide and other "green
house” gases linked to global
warming. If it succeeds, it will set
the energy course for much of the
world for decades to come, help
ing change what we drive, how we
produce electricity, even what we
feed our cattle.
"These 10 days could change
the history of humankind,” Japan’s
foreign minister, Keizo Obuchi,
said in welcoming negotiators
from 150 countries.
The more than 2,000 delegates
first must reconcile an array of dif
fering positions on a long list of
complex issues, chief among them
the size of emissions reductions.

PARIS (AP) — AIDS activists
around the world marched,
prayed and wore red ribbons
Monday to mark the ninth World
AIDS Day — while AIDS victims
in poor nations did what they did
every day: Lived, struggled and
died in obscurity.
On Monday, at least, their lives
were honored.
In Europe, demonstrators ob
served the day with candlelight
marches and songs; in Asia, gov
ernments announced new edu
cation and health programs
aimed at fighting their growing
AIDS problem.
Thousands marched in Paris at
sundown, blowing whistles and
carrying placards demanding
more help for victims. Rallies were
also held in other French cities.
“They are dying less in France, in
the rich countries, but they contin
ue to die more and more in the poor
countries,” French Lfealth Minister
Bernard Kouchnersaid.
Kouchner announced a plan to
require French doctors to report the
number of patients who test positive
for the AIDS virus, though the
names would remain confidential.
“If we knew, in epidemiologi
cal terms, the number of HIV
positive people, this would vast
