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

und zustände über die wir uns in Yugoslavien aufregen würden:

der papa war schon präsident. der bruder gouveneur in florida - wo sein wahlbetrug stattgefunden hat. die geliebte des bruders kriegt dort den posten der innenministerin - das war die die das entgültige wahlergebnis gegen gerichtsbeschluss verkündet hat...

SAVE THE CLIMATE TREATY !

FLOOD GEORGE BUSH WITH YOUR E-MAILS!

>Stop President Bush from betraying the UN climate change treaty!

Last year the US blocked progress at negotiations in The
Netherlands, now Texas oil-man President George W. Bush wants to
destroy the Kyoto Protocol on climate change.

Friends of the Earth asks people around the world to
electronically flood the White House with protest E-mails.

Let`s give President Bush a taste of what climate change means
and how much people are concerned about it.

=========================
Please cut and paste the message below into a new E-mail and send
it to: PRESIDENT BUSH:

=========================

Dear President Bush,

I call on you as President of the USA not to betray the Kyoto
Protocol.

The United States must live up to its commitment to the UN
negotiations to prevent global warming. Sabotaging the Kyoto
Protocol puts the USA into a position of environmental
isolationism and makes it responsible for climate catastrophe.

The US has one of the highest per capita CO2 emissions in the
world. People around the world already faced with the first signs
of climate change, suffering from floods and hurricanes, expect
your country to be in the forefront of tackling climate change.

An enormous potential of creativity, innovation and efficiency is
there to be harvested once we have decided to really reduce CO2
emissions. If you fail to reverse your decision to kill the Kyoto
Protocol, future generations will not forgive you.

President Bush, the science is clear and the international
political will is there to tackle climate change. The US must
join the world in fighting global warming!

Sincerely,
X

=====================

Background:

- A White House spokesman said: "The president has been
unequivocal. He does not support the Kyoto treaty." The Swedish
Environment Minister described the move as "appalling and
provocative".

- Bush`s campaign for presidency was backed and financed by major
US oil giants, which campaigned against the international treaty
to prevent global warming.

- The US promised to cut their climate changing gases by 7% over
1990 levels before 2012 at the latest, but US emissions in fact
rose by more than 10% between 1990 and 2000.

Steuersenkungen: Rückschlag für Bush im amerikanischen Senat

Abstimmungsniederlage im amerikanischen Senat / Kompromißvorschlag von 1,2 Billionen Dollar


wie. WASHINGTON, 5. April. Der Plan des amerikanischen Präsidenten George Bush, die Steuern um insgesamt 1,6 Billionen Dollar zu senken, ist in akute Gefahr geraten. Der amerikanische Senat stimmte in der Nacht zum Donnerstag mit Hilfe mehrerer republikanischer "Überläufer" dafür, das Paket um nahezu 450 Milliarden Dollar zugunsten höherer Ausgaben für die Schuldentilgung und das Bildungswesen zu reduzieren. Dies war die erste gravierende Niederlage für den Präsidenten in den zähen Verhandlungen über den kommenden Staatshaushalt und zugleich ein Warnsignal, daß es in dem gespaltenen Senat in der "überparteilichen" Kooperation hapert.

Quelle FAZ

Der erste Warnschuss vor den Bug !

Sie Senatoren haben wohl gemerkt, was für eine "Pfeife" im White House das sagen hat

Bushs Töne gegen China werden auch "moderater" !

GUT !

My Papa writes to MBS:

why do you always watch the White House in Washington and not the Red-Green Shithouse in Berlin?
We smoke all Kohle in die sky. Why do we have Kohlepenny? Sky all black from dirty Krautkohle from Ruhrarea.

Why do we pay for dirt disposal, and separate paper and bottle and plastic in Frankfurt main station, and after come Turkish man and wirf all in same Fass, and Mülltrenn all bullshit?

Please advise to my papa,

Hallo,

eine E-Mail-Aktion, bei der das weisse Haus der Empfänger ist, ist doch vollkommen sinnlos. Dort ist längst ein Filter installiert, der die Proteste in das übliche >nul-Nirvana schickt.

Besser ist es, die amerikanische Öffentlichkeit weiter für das Thema zu sensibilisieren:

1.
zwei oder mehr deutschen/europäischen Adressen die Protestmail schicken

2.
einer BELIEBIGEN US-amerikanischen Adresse die Protestmail schicken (Firmen kommen da gut, weils die Wirtschaft stört)

3.
Aufforderung an die deutschen/europäischen Empfänger, die Prozedere zu wiederholen

[Ken_meyer]

Somehow shall I the suspicion not loose, that the global
climate catastrophe is a direct successor of the Y2K
problem.

or other expressed: it will a new pig through the
village driven

Heartiliest

A Message from Robert Redford
Dear Friend,

I`ve never circulated this kind of email before. But I am so appalled by President Bush`s plan to open up the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge to massive oil development that I feel I must do whatever I can to help stop it.

To me, the Arctic Refuge represents everything spectacular and everything endangered about America`s natural heritage: a million years of ecological serenity . . . vast expanses of untouched wilderness . . . an irreplaceable sanctuary for polar bears, white wolves and 130,000 caribou that return here each year to give birth and rear their young. For 20,000 years -- literally hundreds of generations -- the native Gwich`in people have inhabited this sacred place, following the caribou herd and leaving the awe-inspiring landscape just as they found it. Our own presidents going back to Eisenhower have kept a bipartisan promise to safeguard this world-class natural treasure. But not THIS president. It is a sad day indeed when our president and congressional leaders would sacrifice America`s largest wildlife refuge for the sake of a possible six-month supply of national energy. A six-month supply! We could save that little oil by improving the fuel efficiency of cars and light trucks by a mere one mile per gallon.

Only one group of Americans will benefit from the destruction of the Arctic Wildlife Refuge: the oil giants. Everyone else loses. Arctic wildlife populations will decline, the Gwich`in people will see their land marred by pipelines and poisoned by oil spills, you and I will become even more dependent on oil, and the planet will suffer catastrophic global warming from the burning of even more fossil fuel.
Unless we get millions of Americans to lodge a protest right now, this nightmarish scenario may well come to pass in the next two months. The Republican energy bill, which would fulfill the president`s promise to drill the Arctic Refuge, is moving through Congress today. House and Senate leaders may also try to sneak through the Arctic drilling provision by attaching it to a "must-pass" appropriations bill. These votes will be decided by the moderates in both parties. We must reach those moderates and hold them accountable.

Here`s what you can do: go to http://www.savebiogems.org/arctic

The Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC) has set up this new website to make it extremely easy for you to send messages of protest to your senators and represenative. It will take you only a minute.

I`ve been on NRDC`s board for 25 years, so I know how effective they are at waging and winning environmental campaigns. Last year, NRDC used web activism to help generate a million messages of protest to Mitsubishi and stopped the company from destroying the last unspoiled birthing ground of the Pacific gray whale.

We`ll win this time too if each of us does our part for the Arctic Refuge. Please visit http://www.savebiogems.org/arctic right now. And forward my message to your family, friends and colleagues. Congress cannot ignore millions of us.

If we let them plunder our greatest wildlife refuge for the sake of oil company profits, then no piece of our natural heritage is safe from destruction. Please go to http://www.savebiogems.org/arctic and help keep the Arctic wild and free.

Sincerely yours, Robert Redford
