Already this year has been plagued with deadly tornadoes and we could be facing another record setting hurricane season, which is slated to start in the next couple of months. We have ignored the scientists and warning signs of global warming in the name of profits. As matter of fact, we now have proof that our greenhouse emissions are rising under Bush:
The United States emitted more greenhouse gases in 2004 than at any time in history, confirming its status as the world’s biggest polluter. Latest figures on the US contribution to global warming show that its carbon emissions have risen sharply despite international concerns over climate change.
The figures, which were quietly released on Easter Monday, reveal that net greenhouse gas emissions during 2004 increased by 1.7 per cent on the previous year, equivalent to a rise of 110 million tons of carbon dioxide.
This is the biggest annual increase since 2000 and means that in 2004 – the latest year that full data is available – the US released the equivalent of nearly 6,300 million tons of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.
Scientists in Britain condemned the increase, saying that it showed how the US was failing to take a lead in the international attempt to curb greenhouse gas emissions despite being the worst offender.
It is simple – would you dump all your garbage into your drinking water then drink it? We are using out atmosphere as a sewer for our cars, factories and anything else that pumps out pollutants. Of course people like Bush and those who blindly following him are so damn stupid they can not realize that our planet is vulnerable. People think Osama is bad – well Osama is a saint compared to these idiots that can’t see the warning signs.
