Re-regarding: Global Warming petition

[Guest guest]

Dear Sylvia and Gill,

Thanks, and I appreciate both your posts.

Well, my email to president (AT) whitehouse (DOT) gov got a nice reply from

autoresponder. :)so it does work sometimes? Some more addresses are

given at bottom of this email. I went to the online petition site

Gill gave and couldn't find anything about this issue amidst the

hodgepodge of topics there.

"Unfortunately, because of the large volume of email received, the

President cannot personally respond to each message. However, the

White House staff considers and reports citizen ideas and concerns."

I understand one needs to be careful what they say about the

president, even online, but I'll take the risk of saying what might

it harm if he WAS inundated by emails and letters about this issue?

How important is breathing? I feel rather passionate about this

issue. As the USA contributes more greenhouse gas than the rest of

the world combined, the rest of the world is affected by global

climate changes and has a right to be concerned too.

It seems doubtful, let alone dangerous, that each person on these

lists would respond or forward an email. However, in lieu of what may

be an easily ignored petition anyway, here is a website with links to

organizations active on this issue. Upon further thought,a better

course of action seems to be to support those organizations already

existing and dedicated to environmental concerns.
