There is some good news. there is some bad news. What do you want me to say? I agree that the situation doesn't look good in the third and developing world, and the improvements are not universal in the first world. But it's a far cry from the claims of environmental catastrophe that GWB caused in 3 months in the office. I think some of you guys are lacking perspective. Joe, Please stop presenting environmentalists, including those on this thread, as emotionally overwrought Westchester society matrons on too many prozac. For whatever purpose, you wish to ignore the serious problems that still exist in this country and the incredible pressure that this country alone puts on the global environment. No one is claiming castastrophe yet but it is clear that Bush is intent on rejecting any new environmental proposals as well as dismantling existing provisions. And environmentalists have very little to fight back with because of the dictatorial stranglehold the Reps have on our federal gov't. As I have said previously, this is the beginning of the end for the Rep party, and part of the way that that will happen will be from the excessive use of power due to this stranglehold. ted
