The Environment / Which President for Climate Change?
« on: 05/09/2006 13:47:02 »
Not being a US citizen, but being very interested in climate change mitigation, I'd like to know what people think to the relative merits of the likely contenders for the next US Presidency. On the Republican side, I know that John McCain has been outspoken in his belief that more action should to be taken to cut greenhouse gas emissions in the US, but haven't read what Condoleezza Rice's position is. For the Democrats, I believe Hilary Clinton has a good knowledge of climate change issues, but of course Al Gore may still run and his understanding comes across as more solid and in-depth.
Obviously, this question is based on a single issue and ignores the reality of what wins and loses elections at the current time but, if tackling climate change were top of the agenda, who would make the most effective post-George W President?
