While the United States as a whole shrugs off global warming, Seattle is hoping that individual cities don't feel the same.
I don't need to tell you that Bush is a moron when it comes to foreign policy -- from pulling out of the ABM treaty in December 2001 under the guise of preventing terror to withdrawing funding for the UNFPA for bullshit reasons. And let's just not get started about the whole "war on terror." But it appears that some municipalities are trying to give him the big f-you.While Bush backed out of the Kyoto Protocol in 2001, some cities like Seattle have been striving to form a "green team" of cities that have adopted the standards, or have set even higher goals. Nice, but I'm not sure it will make any kind of difference. These cities, after all, are probably pretty clean anyway. Not like we'll see Gary, IN, volunteering to commit to the standards.
