An inconvenient truth, indeed

An inconvenient truthLet’s talk environment for now.

Global warming is for real.

In fact, according to a poll by CBS News, many adults in the United States express concerns over climate change, with 70 per cent of respondents think global warming is an environmental problem that is causing a serious impact now.

Well if you’ve watched the film An Inconvenient Truth you’d probably be seriously scared by now. You won’t probably admit it but you probably will think really hard on the merits and demerits of your current set of wheels, and probably about adding those Borla exhausts too.

Bush, in his Jan. 23 State of the Union address, discussed his energy policies saying, "America is on the verge of technological breakthroughs that will enable us to live our lives less dependent on oil. And these technologies will help us be better stewards of the environment, and they will help us to confront the serious challenge of global climate change."

It can be recalled that in 1998, several countries agreed to the Kyoto Protocol, a proposed amendment to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC). The agreement commits nations to reduce their emissions of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases. The U.S. signed the protocol but has not ratified it.

And did I mention that studies have already shown that the United States causes 30.3 per cent of all global warming?
