India not buying Global Warming story http://apocadocs.com/s.pl?1248614599
India rejected key scientific findings on global warming, while the European Union called for more action by developing states on greenhouse gas emissions.
Jairam Ramesh, the Indian environment minister, accused the developed world of needlessly raising alarm over melting Himalayan glaciers.
He dismissed scientists' predictions that Himalayan glaciers might disappear within 40 years as a result of global warming.
"We have to get out of the preconceived notion, which is based on western media, and invest our scientific research and other capacities to study Himalayan atmosphere," he said.
"Science has its limitation. You cannot substitute the knowledge that has been gained by the people living in cold deserts through everyday experience."
