Melting ice caps, thawing permafrost, warmer waters in the Gulf causing monster hurricanes. I wonder why all this is happening?
Oh...I see.
From the NY Times:
But we're going to fix it, right?
Oh, well. Better start working out so I can fit back into my bikini.
(OK, so I've never worn a bikini in my life, but it sounded good ;)
Oh...I see.
From the NY Times:
American emissions of greenhouse gases linked to global warming reached an all-time high in 2004, rising 2 percent from the year before, the Energy Department said, nearly double the average annual rate measured since 1990.
But we're going to fix it, right?
No estimates were available for United States emissions in 2005, although energy experts say increased economic growth this year is likely to make it another record-setter.
The increases in 2003 and 2004 followed a brief dip in emissions in 2001 and 2002. Government officials said that decline reflected a slowdown in the economy, the departure of some manufacturing industries overseas, and emissions cuts in other industries.
Less than two weeks ago, Bush administration officials at climate-treaty talks in Montreal repeatedly cited the short-lived drop in emissions after 2000 as evidence that President Bush's climate policy, using voluntary measures to slow growth in the gas releases, was working.
