"(CNN) -- President Bush told a global climate change conference Friday that the United States will do its part to improve the environment by taking on greenhouse gas emissions.
"We take this issue seriously," he said at the Major Economies Meeting on Energy Security and Climate Change, which the White House sponsored."
"This issue is serious to the American people and to our war on terror. I have asked the State Department to place major contributors of greenhouse gas emissions on the list of nations who sponsor terror. That means you, China, and you, United States," President Bush said emphatically.
"I have also asked the Defense Department to begin looking at possible solutions to global warming. They have creatively proposed a plan using nuclear weapons which would help kill two birds with one stone... we would solve our terrorist problem while at the same time creating a barrier of atmospheric soot, permanently cooling
down the world."...
In my opinion, the United States would never trade off carbon emissions for economic growth. And neither would China.
