SelectPlusBush Gives Hazy Outlook at G8 SummitBush Gives Hazy Outlook at G8 SummitThe Associated PressThe world's top industrialized nations begin their annual summit Monday confronted with demands they reinvigorate the world economy, push ahead languishing climate change talks and make good on pledges to battle poverty and hunger. (July 6)[Notes:ANCHOR VOICE] ((Helo landing, beaty shots, etc., at least one reflecting hazy view)) For his last G8 summit, President Bush came to the mountaintop -- a hot springs resort overlooking a volcanic lake on Japan's northernmost island, Hokkaido. It's a spectacular setting for a meeting the Japanese hope will strike a blow at global warming. But like the hazy view here, THAT is far from clear. BUSH SOT: (approx 16:00 from start) We're working -- working to see if we can come up with a constructive statement. ((Fukuda, then pollution file)) Japan's prime minister Fukuda wants G8 countries and big polluters like China and India to pledge a 50 percent cut in heat-trapping pollution by mid-century. ((Demos in Sapporo FONT the dateline)) Japense protesters think that's the LEAST they can do. THESE think it's time the leaders did more than just talk. ((Security)) Of course the protesters have been kept well away from the summit by thousands of police and troops. ((Newser walkin)) Meantime, at a pre-summit news conference, the president was defending a decision he's made about NEXT month's travel... ((Beijing file footage)) ... to attend the opening ceremonies of the Beijing Olympics. ((Back to bush)) Bush says he's goin to cheer on Team USA -- and NOT to offend his hosts. BUSH SOT: (approx 26:00 from start) I happen to believe not going to the opening games, the opening ceremony for the games would be an affront to the Chinese people. ((More Beijing file footage) And that, Bush says, would make it harder to talk to Chinese LEADERS about the very human rights HE wants to promote. ((Other leaders arriving? Brown? Sarkozy? whoever?)) Other world leaders have threatened to boycott the opening over that and the continuing crackdown in Tibet. But Fukuda says HE'S decided to do as Bush is doing -- and take part. MS, AP, Toyako Japan
