Keep Emissions Down

President Bush recently announced that the United States Government will not honor its commitments under the 1997 Kyoto Protocol to reduce greenhouse gases. The United States produces 25% of the world's carbon dioxide, a gas that is believed to be the main contributor to global warming. Rising global temperatures are known to raise sea levels and change precipitation and other climate conditions. Changing climates alter forestation, crop yields, and water supplies. The environmental effects threaten humans as well as birds, fish, and all types of ecosystems. Likely effects are an increase in weather-related disasters, an expansion of deserts into existing range lands, and flooding of densely populated coastal. Coastal East Asian countries will become entirely submerged. Show that you disagree with the Bush administration's decision to withdraw from the 1997 Kyoto Protocol on Global Warming. Urge President Bush to review his policy in this matter and devise a comprehensive plan to reduce US emissions of so-called greenhouse gases. Show Mr. Bush the world is watching. Thank you.
