The agreement reached in Marrakech by the majority of the nations that adhere to the Kyoto protocol, for the reduction of gas emissions and the containment of environmental pollution on a world scale was important.

The satisfaction for the large concord result must be followed, according to a note by the Cgil Secretary, a ratification to sanction and subordinate industrial policies of adhering countries to the respect pf the parameters and indications established by the Kyoto protocol.

The actuation of the ratification was decided for the 14th of June 2002 and it will render the binding dispositions contained in the protocol executive. The political convergence that had allowed the reaching of a wide majority was favoured both by the International climate and by a United States position albeit not aligned, considered in final analysis not be obstructive.

On the basis of the Marrakech agreement, the Cgil Secretary invites the Italian Government to elaborate the national program involving and making participants all the social subjects involved; whereas the senator's group of the Green party has already introduced to the press the law proposal for the ratification of the Kyoto protocol.
