Wash. Post documents another series of lies and denials by the Bush people -- on global warming:
To hear President Bush's top environmental adviser tell it, Europe is coming around to the administration's approach to confronting global warming.Criminal, like so much of the Bush agenda.
"We are all working at the same realistically aggressive pace," James L. Connaughton said in an interview this week. "The world is coming to a more sustainable, collective vision of how to address climate change."
As the eight major industrialized nations struggle to reach an agreement on global warming policy before next week's Group of Eight summit, however, many European officials have a different take on the matter.
"I wish I could believe it was true," said Barbara Young, chief executive of Britain's Environment Agency. When it comes to Bush's climate change policy, she added, "the amount of energy that goes into denying the case and not getting on with the job is just criminal."
