A Sorry Bu$hCo Environmental Record

The WaPo takes Bu$hCo to task for his remarks to Larry King last Thursday claiming "We've got a great record." when responding to softball questions/prompts somewhat related to the environment. Here are the bottom line facts presented by this editorial:

The administration has not taken the steps necessary to limit greenhouse gas emissions, barring some miraculous technological breakthrough. Aside from modestly raising fuel economy standards, it has not created a regulatory climate favorable to carbon reductions either in vehicles or in power plants. It has resisted mandatory limits on carbon emissions and the sort of ambitious fuel economy standards that would force automakers to innovate and help make smaller cars more attractive. It has resisted taxing carbon use, preferring instead to provide incentives for oil and gas extraction -- just the opposite of what's needed.

Bu$hCo has the worst record of any President on many things yet the environment has to be one of his/their worst. Mother Jones says so as does Al Gore. The Sierra Club created a list of his environmental errors they labeled "Bush's 7 Deadly Sins" in 2004. Peace ... or War!
