Who has the best policy on dealing with climate change in America?

Question

I know that Huckabee is probably the least likely to deal with it at all... considering that he says things like "Environmentalists are just those people who want to tell you what kind of deodorant to use."

It's safe to say that Al Gore is not running in this election.

But I honestly have no idea which candidates other than Obama have a plan to work with the IPCC like every other civilized nation.

Answer 1

The only candidate that has made global warming one of his central issues and called for researching alternative fuel sources is Kucinich. As for the top-tier candidates, Obama seems to be the one that has addressed the issue. The occupation of Iraq and health-care have simply been the most pressing issues for this upcoming election moreso than global warming.

Answer 2

McCain or Edwards.

At some point we're going to have to be more friendly to our environment..... there's no better time to start than right now.

Many larger companies are already taking voluntary measures, but most are not. You can't have a voluntary speed limit sign and expect everyone to drive appropriately can you ?

The argument is that it would damage the economy...

What good is a booming economy if we all have to wear SPF 4million sunblock everyday and facemasks to breath..(like people in china and japan already do now)...?

Global warming is real, and it is man made. The only people refuting this fact are non scientists...or are scientists who are paid by energy companies.

Government paid scientists have been censored by the Bush administration...their reports on climate changes have been altered by the Bush administration. It is sickening..

So who do you trust ? America's Scientists or Bush ?

Answer 3

There isn't a single candidate addressing our dependency on Arab oil, or our dependency on Arab money to fund our deficit, or providing a plan to eliminate the interest payments we deliver to Arab countries.

Instead we get a lot of rhetoric about icecaps, and jokes about deodorant.

The real issue, the fact we're now slaves to a foreign energy source, and we're being extorted and are now in debt to the very countries that gave birth to the 9/11 attackers isn't addressed at all, by any party or any candidate.

Nobody seems to love this country anymore, and seem perfectly content to hand it over to foreign business interests.

Somewhere the Arab states are laughing at us, for being so naive.

Answer 4

I honestly think it doesn't matter anymore. We've gone way beyond the point of return. Earth is tired of us, it is cleansing itself of humans. The planet's has been going through cycles like this for millions of years. It slowed down for awhile which allowed us to dominate the world, but now our time is up. Let it go, we can't change it. Even everyone in the U.S. decided to do something about it this very second, it would still be too late damage done, no going back. And like I said, Earth goes through cycles anyway. Our best bet? Find a new world to live on and destory.

Answer 5

I agree with Huckabee... although I think he is still too liberal.
Why don't you keep your freegin environmentalist ideas to yourself.
And Gore is big poluter flying all over the world with jet planes that spew more pollution than thousands of SUVs

Answer 6

What climate problem? That is a crock'o S--t created by politicians,and morons like Algor ,who do not what to face the real problems of our planet the way G. Bush is doing .Like the pied Piper they are playing a sirens tune to beguile the foolish under their control.

Answer 7

That has always been the problem with America. We just fail to fall in line with the other sheep and believe every piece of BS that is thrown at us. That damn free-will our forefathers were so proud of is just a handicap.

Since AGW is a Marxist political platform you would have to assume the most Marxist of the candidates would be most likely to follow this made-up religion. Hillary, Obama and Giuliani and Edwards are your best bet if you want to give the UN more control of your life.

Myself I guess I'll have to go with the most Christian candidate because their made-up god has been around longer. I admire staying power.

Answer 8

Gore,Obama.and Kucinich

Answer 9

I think the governator is doing pretty well in California, he can't run for president though. I don't think Obama's going to make it past the primary. So, looks like Hillary for us environmentalists.
