Bush says he takes climate change “Very Seriously”!!!!!!!!!!!

Posted by pgomes on April 4, 2007

President George W. Bush said he took climate change very seriously Tuesday, a day after the US Supreme Court ruled the government must regulate greenhouse gases, seen by analysts as a potential watershed in fighting global warming.

A sharply divided court ruled Monday that greenhouse gases are pollutants, and so the federal Environmental Protection Agency was wrong to say it had no mandate to regulate them.

The decision dealt a new blow to Bush’s administration, which has been steadfast in refusing any limits on US industry or on its gas-guzzling cars, arguing it could hurt the country’s economy.

“The decision (of) the Supreme Court we take very seriously. It’s the new law of the land,” Bush told reporters.

He insisted that “I’ve taken this issue very seriously. I have said that it is a serious problem. I recognize that man is contributing greenhouse gases.”

But Bush argued that “anything that happens cannot hurt economic growth. I care about the working people of the country but also because in order to solve the greenhouse gas issue over a longer period of time, it’s going to require new technologies, which tend to be expensive.”
