Bush’s greenhouse gas emissions goal is embarassing

Submitted by skassel on April 20, 2008 – 9:34 pmNo Comment

Wow! With an 18% reduction in the growth of emissions, this whole “global warming” thing should be licked in no time!

“It is now time for the U.S. to look beyond 2012 and take the next step,” Mr. Bush said, a reference to his previously stated national goal, announced in 2002, of an 18 percent reduction in the growth of emissions of heat-trapping gases relative to economic growth by 2012. Mr. Bush said the nation was on track to meeting that target.
