Do you think president W Bush is slowly destroying natural Eco systems with the need for drilling  oil.?
612883
Yes. He is destroying everything with his need to drill oil. Bush should take that 300 billion, wipe his a$$, and invest in some alternate energy!!

YES YES YES!\n\nThe only way to reduce our dependence on foreign sources of oil in the near future is to drill for more oil HERE!\n\nIf the tree huggers don't like it tell them to stop driving cars, using electricity and heating their homes so there is more oil for the rest of us.\n\n****\n\nHey Gonzo, If by conservation you mean saving every bug, animal and tree on the face of the earth so you can have a pretty view as you drive your SUV through the country yeah I've heard of that. If left up to you folks we’d all be living out in the woods singing kumbuya hugging the trees, eating mushrooms, berries and getting eaten by wolves and bears. \n\nThis nation needs energy. Currently our best source of energy comes from oil, coal and natural gas. Now, if you can come up with a better way to get those things out of the ground with out harming all of your bugs and trees I'd love to hear about it. After we're done pulling all the resources out, so you can be nice safe and warm in your home.  I'm all in favor of planting trees there, they do grow back you know...  As for me when I have to choose between heating my home and saving a tree or the squirrel that lives in that tree. The tree and the squirrel are going to loose every time.

Definitely, we are running out of natural resources. We should do our bit to save wat we have... Every tiny drop makes an ocean...

Clinton blamed Bush for not continuing his (Clinton's) environmental programs. The science is tenable at best, and pure politiking at worst, that links human activity with stronger hurricanes. There may indeed be a link, but we can't explain how it works. If we don't understand the mechanics behind it, it remains only a theory and a coincidence. It's like the Lisa Simpson Analogy: I have a pen that repels tigers. I don't know how it works but there are no tigers around, therefore it repels tigers. By the same token, we have high levels of carbon dioxide and we have warmer ocean surface temperatures and more hurricanes. But the temperature rise has been greatest in the Pacific, while Atlantic hurricanes have been most impacted. Where's the mechanism? Once we understand it, we can say for certain.\n\nA businessman relative once tried to diagnose a leak in my car's power steering reservoir by sticking his little finger into the dip. As he stared at it, I asked him which knuckle meant "full" and which "low." Mechanics fix cars. Environmental scientists decipher atmospheric phenomena. Lawyers litigate. Presidents make decisions\n\nSo we have Clinton, a lawyer and former President, declaring a scientific connection between atmospheric phenomena and the guy who beat his chosen successor. I'd say the connection is less than tenable at best, out and out political at worst.

This is what bothers me.  The whole freakin oil issue.  I think that is the worst abuse on mankind AND the earth.  Because oil is the reason for this whole damn war and also oil is the earth's life blood.  How would we like it if someone was mining blood out of us and not replacing it?  We are sucking the life blood out of this planet and every single one of us is guilty!!  The rain forests are vanishing, global warming is so damn obvious but weather it is just natures course or our doing is another question I struggle with.  Maybe a bit of both.  We are probably excellurating (sp) it!\nDon't get me started.  I just had 11 hours of sleep and I could just kick anyone's butt over this whole abusing earth issue.  I know it sounds crazy but sometimes I hope man destroys himself before he destroys the planet.  \nIs that rocket ready yet baby?  We gotta get the hell out of here.

No. I think it affects the whole world. Oil is a global necessity.

All of the above.  El Presidente Jorge Bush and Fox are on the same page.  We get his poor, that he sends here for slave labor, and they bring him our money.  In return we will get their energy.  And we all know how much Cheney loves energy.  In a few months, we will have a major energy crisis, just like the trumped up one in California before 911 that Enron was going to help with.  I see Cheney's hands all over this.

I totally do not think that Bush is a good president. I recommend watching the movie Loose Change. It proves that 9/11 was a conspiracy, and that Bush knew about it. He let it happen so he could get oil from Iraq. Also, he is doing this new immigration law to distract people from raising high gas prices. This is my opinion.

No, it seemed obvious that he did not want to do anything that would hurt the oil and energy companies. Most scientists (except energy "experts") had enough evidence to indicate that  the world needs to act now.\nThe idea that we should have more research I believe was a ploy to put off doing anything that would hurt the corporations.\nIt also was consistent with the administration's hostility toward any world agreements, such as Kyoto and the U.N. \n\nUnfortunately, this is one area where world-wide cooperation is important, but I don't see it happening.

I personally believe that oil is renewing itself daily at a rate equal to or greater than our current consumption rate; thus it'll last as long as there are plants and animals to die and decay.\n\nBear in mind, this is only my opinion.

It's not just the "Right" addiction to oil. It's the whole country that needs it. Race, Creed Gender, or Religion really doesn't matter. Everyone depends on it. As far as the Gulf, the director of FEMA was the first to admit he had no clue what he was doing. Another Bush Blunder that cost yet more lives, and can't admit when he's wrong.

Absolutely, and has been for the last five.\nSince last year, the US has lost a major city (New Orleans), Walmartised yet more of its white-collar jobs, and lost yet more foreign credibility. Clearly the coalminers bear testimony to his relentless assault on regulation, unions and the environment. Bush is a global pariah. Sharon is out of power and Blair will be gone within a few years. Even Harper in Canada had to strenuously distance himself to get elected.\n\nBut back to New Orleans. It's the invisible 800-lb gorilla in the room. Why does Bush profess to care passionately about democracy and the standard of living in al-Anbar province but not Louisiana? Please tell me.\nWhy no bipartisan congressional inquiry?\nI want to see a vox pop from the streets of NO, Baton Rouge or Houston.\n\n[Oh no, he's just started on abortion and stem cells. Let's see if he mentions Terri Schiavo...]

I have to believe that we are on a downward spiral. We are depleting the primeval rain forests which provide oxygen and burning fossil ie carbon fuels which produce carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide, in addition to excreting sulphur which produces sulphurous and sulphuric acid. The westernised/civilised world is reluctantly taking small steps, but the 3rd world is increasing at an alarming rate.\nGlobal warming is a fact, and the result of this within this century will be frightening both in terms of sea-level rises and also hurricanes/typhoons/cyclones. Let us see what damage is caused in the Gulf of Mexico THIS year....

I am very concerned with the rash of natural disasters that are happening and can only really attribute them to global warming. Our planet has the ability to "rebuild" the ozone, but not quickly enough at the rate we are depleting it. I think as Americans and as a consumer nation, we need to get on the clue train about how much we are harming our world by car emmisions and we need to switch to a clean alternative. It's possible, but we fear change.

Do we want to be self sufficient in oil or close to it?\nI do! The area of the drilling in Alaska is not going to hurt the earth nearly as much as I cars do. The oil pipes have proved that more animals are near them not less.\nProbably the heat from them. No animal has become extinct from the drilling. If we are concerned about the effect of oil drilling, we will bring out the horses. I love to ride horses but not in rain & they are a little slow for me. Crack up the drills.

Our home is headed for ruination. All the reports including one i saw on the news today regarding the fish stocks in the sea needing to be protected from commercial fishing , fossil fuels like gas, oil,  climate change, deforestation.  We will not make it past 2050 without radical change.\n         Revelation 11  v 17.

he ignores any warning, bush is fucking it up for everyone, politically, environmentally- would it radicalize you if a foreign power dropped bombs on your family? we're running out of time with greenhouse gasses, that means you and your children wherever we live
