European Doctor demands that U.S. President Bush Honour Greenhouse Gas limitations treaty

by Martin Tucek, M.D.

For years, Mr Bush has been doing everything he could to ruin the Kyoto Agreement. He does not seem to have changed his mind even now. Were he a private person, pollution of a neighbour´s plot, of a common river etc. would be considered criminal, he would be called to justice, and his attitude would be called anti-social and surely not exactly Christian.

In "high politics", there are no rules. If the G8 wanted to prove that their summits are of any value, they should have substantively tackled the Global Warming problem.

We all know this is the potentially mortal issue which we shall either start resolving immediately or our grandchildren will lead miserable and unworthy lives. Shouldn´t Mr Bush be plainly told: either you commit yourself to a comprehensive ´Greenhouse Gases Limitation Treaty´ NOW or there will be no official contacts by various foreign governments, with your government, until the end of its pitiful mandate?

Responsible politicians everywhere would have full public backing for such a stance.
