u.s. in last place among g8

in what we're sure is no surprise to anyone, a new study found that the u.s. has done the least among the world's 8 largest economies to address global warming.

maybe it has something to do with the fact that dubya denied global warming existed for the first 6 years of his presidency, refused to ratify the kyoto protocols, then admitted that global warming existed but denied that it was caused by us, then admitted that it was probably caused by us but would 'harm the economy' (translation: dip exxon's stock) too much to fix.

so when we choose up sides to play morlocks and eloi, make sure that any oil company stockholders that you know end up on the buffet table instead of around it.
