Basically G8..means the group of 8...it is pretty much a bunch of word leaders who sit in a room ( Canada a Prime Minister Paul Martin, France a President Jacques Chirac, Germany a Chancellor Gerhard SchrF6;der, Italy a Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi, Japan a Prime Minister Junichiro Koizumi, Russia a President Vladimir Putin, United Kingdom a Prime Minister Tony Blair, United States of America a President George W. Bush)
basically this year's G8 was mainly to do with poverty in africa and climate change...thats about it really
