Don't worry! Be Happy!
The problem, if there is a problem (and it may not be a problem) will likely go away by itself... or something like that. According to the Associated Press:
"New technologies will change how we live and how we drive our cars which all will have the beneficial effect of improving the environment," Bush said. "And in my judgment we need to set aside whether or not greenhouse gases have been caused by mankind or because of natural effects and focus on the technologies that will enable us to live better lives and at the same time protect the enviroment."
Dear Mr. President:
1 - Not all technological changes lead to an ever-improving environment. In fact, it takes a lot of active effort to make sure that new technologies do as little harm as possible. It doesn't just happen.
2 - We know the rise in greenhouse gas concentrations in the Earth's atmosphere are caused by human activity. I think you must have been trying to discuss global warming and not greenhouse gas concentrations. However, that has also been a dead-and-buried debate except for a few folks such as yourself as the scientific consensus is wide and deep. You are also wrong as to whether or not it matters. It matters because the most effective and cost-effective method of protecting our environment is dependent on understanding the causes of global climate change.
3 - "focus on technologies" What does that mean? Does that mean you now support higher CAFE standards and requiring the installation of technology to reduce the generation of greenhouse gases during manufacturing? What about requiring higher energy efficiency in homes and home appliances to decrease electricity consumption? What about better mass transit? These are technologies that do exactly what you describe: they improve our lives while reducing pollution. Unfortunately, these are steps that you have never shown interest in taking.
It's nice to see you addressing the issue, but you need to address with more than simple platitudes devoid of any vision or strategy. Some leadership of some form, perhaps?
