A climate change Top Ten

Here's a tough list of the top ten things the British paper The Independent says could be done to slow down climate change. And I have to admit, there's at least one that makes me think "ouch" even though I know they're right. (My boyfriend lives in the UK so cheap airfares are essential to our relationship at this point!)

Number ten: HAVE A LATE-NIGHT TALK WITH GEORGE BUSH

Do anything you can to get George Bush to change his mind about climate change. The world needs America, the biggest CO2 emitter, to lead the fight against global warming. The President is denying the evidence.

Yup. While we make up only 5% of the world's population, we have accounted for 50% of the increase in CO2 emissions. Not exactly something to chant "we're number one" over.
