Whether you believe that global warming is happening as dramatically as some would have us believe, you cannot ignore the fact that we have been pulling a lot of extra carbon out of the ground and reintroducing it into the biosphere. In the mean time, we are destroying ecosystems that could help to buffer that excess carbon.
We can't undo what we've done. That carbon we've introduced is going to stick around for millions of years. But we can slow, and eventually stop our use of fossilized carbon for fuel and start using renewable sources

Ultimately air con is self propogating; leaving an air con building and entering 30 degree heat makes it feel more like 40 degrees. Once you've crossed the road to the deli or dohnut shop you're back into air con and appreciating is because "it's so damn hot outside" and so the cycle continues.[/rant]

As usual, someone from the UK has written a post with a GREAT underlying point and RELEVANT and IMPORTANT topics and rather than focusing on just the evils of specific acts they're going to fall into steriotypical Ameribashing because it's the trendy thing to do.
I guess if you blame me it's easier to feel better about yourself

Some of the largest groups working for change of evil "American policy" (as you might say) are Americans. Some of the largest opponents of some of the evils that are going on in America are Americans. Using a phrase like "the American way" to describe things that populations of Americans are working against is a disservice to the Americans that agree with you.

hmmmm... some thoughts
- if you can build houses for a hot climate, why not do it? Maybe not 50 years ago, but with energy prices going up it might be worthwile investing in alternative architecture
