E-PAMPHLET #5 George W. Bush promised to limit carbon dioxide emissions to slow global warming. Then, after getting elected, he changed his tune and said limits weren’t needed, because there’s no link between human activity and global warming.
Oh, really? A new government report shows that Bush is wrong!* (Click any * symbol in this e-mail for more information.) Only a President who doesn’t read the newspapers could miss worldwide evidence that:* *Carbon
dioxide levels are rising.
Forward
this e-pamphlet so people know that George W. Bush doesn’t
just lack a plan for Iraq; he lacks one for the environment, too.
We don’t have to wander aimlessly. There’s an alternative
to Bush. John Kerry has a vision
for our environment. “When President Taft created Glacier National Park in 1910, it was home to an estimated 150 glaciers. Since then the number has decreased to fewer than 30.” p.14 “The snows of Kilimanjaro have melted more than 80 percent since 1912.” p.14 “Louisiana is losing approximately 25 square miles of wetlands every year.” pp.19 & 27 “CO2 levels are rising….But…in the waters between 250 and 450 meters…deep, CO2 levels are rising at nearly twice the rate as in the surface water.” p.28 “[Global warming]’s not a belief system; it’s an observable scientific fact.” – Nicholas Bates, Bermuda Atlantic Time-series Study, which monitors the Sargasso Sea. p.28 “Over the past 140 years, forest clearing and fossil-fuel burning have pushed up the atmosphere’s CO2 level by nearly 100 parts per million.” p.20 |
