That was the question—with respect to the global problems we currently face—that Tom Brokaw posed to the spectacular panel at "Enhancing the U.S.'s Role in the World," sponsored by t
Historically, at least, the Democrats have held an overwhelming advantage over Republicans on the question of which party would best manage and protect the environment. Thus, in an attempt to “wa
The next President cannot cave in to special interests and what is easy, popular, or will make them liked. He or she must set standards and deadlines to reduce emissions, develop alternative fuels and protect our ever dwindling wildlife and their habitats. The future of our country - our planet - depends on it.
The FIRST thing the new president should do is enforce the anti-pollution laws and never again make clean air and clean water standards voluntary for industrial polluters. The EPA should make peace with Governor Schwartzenegger and let him enforce his tougher vehicle emission standards in California. Tougher standards should be adopted and enforced for the rest of the country, too, and a national standard implemented, with TEETH in it. Auto makers should be given time to retool, and federal hel
The next president should enter into a binding international treaty through the United Nations to cut U.S. emissions. He or she should also work with developing countries to adapt new technologies that both allow for economic development and protect the environment.
We need a president who will do the right thing and start action of global warming immediately! The world's top climate scientists say we have only a limited window of time to start decreasing emissions before catastrophic climate changes alter our planet irreversibly!!! We need to decrease emissions by 2% per year starting now to allow us to reach the target of an 80% reduction below 1990 levels by the year 2050!!! Preferably a carbon tax in my opinion would be the way to go,but in lieu of
1> Sign and extend the Kyoto Protocol2> Nationalize CA emission standard3> Commit to renewable energy with the strength that JFK did with space program
1.) Join other nations in a collaborative effort to reduce Co2 emissions, to clean up the environment, and to decrease the accumulation of waste materials and toxic chemicals in the environment.2) Make a firm committment to take a stand against the erosion of supports for wildlife that are endangered so that future generations will have more wildlife to enjoy.3.) Begin to see the Earth as our home, and as our sacred responsibility, rather than as something to be exploited.4.) Realize that old gr
Make fuel emissions control a national law and stop hampering those states who want to lessen emissions. Force Detroit and all foreign car companies to "clean up their act" and create cleaner cars
EAT LESS MEAT - The Food and agriculture organization of the United Nations(FAO)says livestock production is one of the major causes of the world's most pressing environmental problems, including global warming, land degradation, air and water pollution, and loss of biodiversity. Using a methodology that considers the entire commodity chain, it estimates that livestock are responsible for 18 percent of greenhouse gas emissions, a bigger share than that of the entire transportion industry.
The best thing we can do is remain strong militarily. Support the military and fight the evil Chinese,North Koreans,Russian totalitarianism and radical Islam. ..that's the only way to head off disaster. More like this..HONOLULU (AP) - A U.S. Navy cruiser blasted a disabled spy satellite with a pinpoint missile strike that achieved the main mission of exploding a tank of toxic fuel 130 miles above the Pacific Ocean, defense officials said. God Bless America.
Establish an educational program to convince freeway drivers they can save a lot of money, CO2 emissions and barrels of oil by driving at 60 mph on cruise control. It doesn't cost anything but a little time.
