Dear Kirsten,
An interesting twist to your question was revealed in a New Scientist article published in 2002 which stated the following:

*"The filthy rich" Plot to undermine global pollution controls revealed

*19:00 02 January 2002
From New Scientist Print Edition. Mick Hamer

A secret group of developed nations conspired to limit the effectiveness of the UN's first conference on the environment, held in Stockholm in 1972. The existence of this cabal, known as the Brussels group, is revealed in 30-year-old British government records that were kept secret until this week. ...

The Brussels group included Britain, the US, Germany, Italy, Belgium, the Netherlands and France
