Kerry And Bush Poles Apart On Climate Change
While President Bush has been refusing to address climate change through legislation, Senator John Kerry is advocating much stronger measures to combat it.
Senator Kerry supports both the McCain-Lieberman bill (to cap overall U.S. emissions in 2010 no higher than the overall levels back in 2000); as well as a bill he and Senator John McCain submiited to raise average fuel economy of vehicles sold in the U.S. from 24 mpg to 36 mpg by 2015; and the Kyoto Treaty. President Bush on the other hand prefers to make pollution and fuel economy measures voluntary, and removed references to climate change from a 2002 Environmental Protection Act report on air pollution.
