President Bush

The Bush administration has arguably been the most anti-environmental in our nation’s history. From weakening protections for clean air and water, national forests, and wildlife, to advancing destructive energy policies this administration has shown an utter disregard for the environment and public health.

And when it comes to addressing global warming – the biggest problem we face – the administration’s approach has been an abysmal failure. Although President Bush finally acknowledged in his 2007 State of the Union that global warming is a problem, his proposed solutions are deeply flawed and completely inadequate.

In last year's State of the Union address, the President declared America was addicted and that we needed "to get off oil." However, the nation's dependence on oil has actually increased by six percent since he took office.

From churches to congressional leaders to corporate boardrooms, there's a tidal wave of demand in America for mandatory action to address global warming. When will the President stop talking the talk and start leading the way towards real steps to confront global warming?
