Bush announces new global warming plan: a Valentine's Day gift for energy corporations

Bush announces new global warming plan: a Valentine's Day gift for energy corporations: "US President George W. Bush unveiled on February 14 proposals that the administration claims are aimed at reducing greenhouse gas emissions. The plan is being promoted as an alternative to the Kyoto agreement on global warming, from which the US withdrew last spring. However, the administration’s new policy, particularly as it affects carbon dioxide, will be entirely voluntary. It is essentially an abandonment of any attempt to curb such emissions, which are viewed by most scientists as the primary cause of global warming."

(Note; as a greenhouse gas methane is many times more potent than CO2.)
