Too bad the United States does not care about climate change

without comments

The British leader plans to attend the Copenhagen summit, intended to cap two years of negotiations on a global climate change treaty, and has called on fellow leaders to join him. So far, few have said they will go.

It’s a shame that the Prime Minister of the UK is the one out there trying to lead on an issue that the United States of America does not really care about. The leadership of this country pay an exorbitant amount of lip service to the issue but are held in check by polluting corporations in the coal and oil industries. Congress is simply feckless when it comes to legislating on climate change. This is why we will not have a climate bill this year. Our only hope is that the EPA will start to regulate carbon emissions in a way that Congress has failed to do.
