OK, but how? We need to heat our homes and power our lights. We may be the worst contributor, but until we have a better way to do these things that doesn't break the bank, we are going to be in the same situation.
They are making good steps in some areas, more and more cars are getting more fuel efficient, and houses are being cheaper to heat, however we keep building more, bigger houses, so the savings are offset. We can't tell people they can't have kids, or start limiting the children people have, that is simply not something this country can do. Until we can move away from using fossil fuels for heat, we are going to continue to contribute to the greenhouse gasses, until there is a reasonable substitute, it won't happen. > -----Original Message----- > From: Mary Jo Sminkey [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > > You do realize that of industrialized countries, the US is one of the > worst contributors yet is on the low end of the scale in terms of taking > action?
