The U.S.is getting much better at polluting the air we ALL breathe and making sure that our children always have a place to swim, even it that means Main Street. I don’t want to say that someone in the mid-west will have major problems as the water levels threaten to drown everyone on the coast but they will feel the effect and it won’t be a good effect. I harp on global warming ’cause I feel that it a threat to me and my family (present and future).
Here’s a summary of the article:
“We’re on a path to exceeding levels of global warming that will cause catastrophic consequences, and we really need to be seriously reducing emissions, not just reducing the growth rate as the president is doing,” Michael MacCracken, chief scientist at the nonpartisan Climate Institute in Washington, said Saturday.
…”I think it is very likely that the main reason the report has been held up for more than a year beyond the deadline is because the administration is reluctant to make an honest statement about likely climate change impacts on this country,” said Piltz, a former senior associate with the federal Climate Change Science Program.
