The Kyoto protocol was signed by Clinton, but neither the Clinton government or the following Bush government ever ratified it. It has also never been unsigned by the Bush governement. Congress could also move forward with ratification without presidential approval, but it could be vetoed by the Whitehouse if approved. Most analysts believe congress would be unable to pass ratification, as many Democrates also reject the treaty. Brandon Caswell
