A Letter to President Bush
Dear Mr. President:
No challenge we face is more momentous than the threat of global climate change. The current provisions of the Kyoto Protocol are a matter of legitimate debate. But the situation is becoming urgent, and it is time for consensus and action. There are many strategies for curbing greenhouse-gas emissions without slowing economic growth. In fact, the spread of advanced, cleaner technology is more of an economic opportunity than a peril. We urge you to develop a plan to reduce U.S. production of greenhouse gases. The future of our children—and their children—depends on the resolve that you and other world leaders show.
Respectfully,
Jimmy Carter Mikhail Gorbachev John Glenn Walter Cronkite
George Soros J. Craig Venter Jane Goodall Edward O. Wilson
Harrison Ford Stephen Hawking
