Especially when our leadership consists of a Tax and trade bill that does very little for the environment while harming the economy which really doesnt need any more problems. Our other "leadership" avenue is we give hundreds of billions of dollars to other countries to deal with their supposed global warming issues. Mind you that pretty much none of this will ever be enforcable... That volcano that erupted the other day has way more environmental impact than a billion people and last I knew we didn't have control over them though it has been proposed by Pelosi to try to tax them for excessive lava flow. As a matter of fact if a few more volcanos erupt and put all that soot and dust in the atmosphere we will be worrying about global cooling

That should drive the greenies blood pressure up. Prepare for a flood of links..............
It's funny that when a scientific subject is brought up, some people can only talk politics.

No, it doesn't harm us at all to try and eliminate pollution, keep the air and water clean, find less expensive and greener ways to produce energy, to try and become less dependent upon foreign countries, etc.

I am much happier, when it's six degrees out today, to have solar energy helping keep my house toasty warm for pennies, than paying the natural gas company alot more.
