Bush has changed his mind about Global Warming, but he wants it done in 2025 or later, and by then it may be too late. He had to admit that it is real, but he does not have any intentions of doing anything about it in his term. That's why we need Gore to be president. I'm not satisfied that any of the of the ones running for president fully understand Global Warming. Although, McCain said that he has worked on it longer than Gore.

Bush Climate Strategy: 1% increase in our Greenhouse pollution until 2025, then "halt it."

Let's say x is current level of emission. By 2025, we will have

y = x ( 1+0.01)^(2025-2008) = x ( 1.01)^17 = 1.18

Therefore, the greenhouse gas emission by 2025 will be 18% higher than what it is in 2008, by the mathematical expression above. This strategy boils down to doing nothing.

Ref: http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.p...toryId=89701672

where you will find the quote "Greenhouse gas emissions are rising in the United States by an average of about 1 percent a year."

Isn't this global warming thing a farce anyway. No matter what we in the US do to mess up our economy in supporting this myth, China will out do ten fold. We have bigger fish to fry like Global Islam, its far more dangerous and real.

U.S. Governors Meeting at Yale Fuels Global Warming Alarmism

(Chicago, Ill. - April 18, 2008) On Friday, April 18, Yale University hosted a meeting of state governors calling for restrictions on greenhouse gas emissions.

According to James M. Taylor, senior fellow of environment policy at the Heartland Institute, such restrictions would be ruinous economically and would provide no beneficial effect to the environment.

The following comments can be attributed to James M. Taylor. For additional information, you can contact Taylor directly at 941/776-5690, email taylor@heartland.org.

"The overtly political carnival at Yale University makes one wonder where the science is in this meeting.

"Yale University is blessed with such outstanding scholars as Professors Robert Mendelsohn and William Nordhaus, both of whom have concluded that the rash action advocated by these governors is unwise. Curiously, the promoters of this political event appear to have overlooked the contributions of such prestigious scholars.

"Temperatures have fallen over the past 10 years, yet in typically political fashion, alarmist governors from several states argue that people must act now to avert a crisis. If carbon dioxide emissions are causing such a crisis, why have global temperatures risen only 0.6 degrees Celsius in the past full century, and why have temperatures not risen at all since 1998?"

Portions of global warming, once in place, will last for hundreds or thousands of years, even longer than the Islam religion itself has been around. It takes that long for excess carbon to be removed from the atmosphere-ocean system.

The world has warmed in the last 10 years. All one has to do to see this is look at running means (3-5 years) of the temperatures that filter out the year-to-year blips caused by El Nino's and La Nina's. Even the recent cooling blip has now reverted back to warming with one of the warmest March global averages on record.

Temperatures are on track to rise much more in the 21st century compared to the 20th due to the increased (and still rising) carbon emission rates in recent decades.

"Global warming is a farce. War is better for the oil and coal industry."
