I think Harper thinks its better to just outright say that Kyoto is not achievable and to be able to use the Liberal'a lack of action on it as a direct cause as to why it can't be done. Even if Kyoto goes away, its likely that the Liberal's will use a large environmental hammer in the next election, and Harper will be able to point to his honesty on environmental issues, whereas the Liberal's did nothing and continued to spout about it.
Just my 2 cents.
