"The US Environmental Protection Agency has recently released the Climate
Action Report 2002. The report considers in depth the effects which Global
Warming will have on the US, and it's being called a significant reversal
of administration policy. For the first time, through this report, the Bush
Administration is acknowledging that human actions, specifically the
emission of greenhouse gases, are responsible for the effects of Global
Warming which are currently being felt across the US, and around the world.
The report contends that the environment in the US will be substantially
changed over the next few decades, with high likelihood for disruption of
snow-fed water supplies, more heat waves, and the permanent disappearance
of Rocky Mountain meadows and coastal marshes. However, there are no new
plans for dealing with these problems. In fact, the report recommends
adapting to these inevitable changes. " (03)
