Global Warming
- Share via
Media reports of El Nino lack the one, most critical component--its cause, global warming. Treated as a weather story, we are deprived of the awareness that those who insist on selling us every last drop of oil on the planet are culpable in the various disasters global warming is expected to produce.
Our president has responded by helping to move more manufacturing jobs to the Third World, where his proposals would allow greater production of greenhouse gases. Local leaders tell us to prepare, but nowhere do I hear politicians address the real problem; our planetary life-support system is being destroyed in the quest for profits.
