Did America take too much time to react to the issues of global warming?
Everyone seems to be suddenly going "green," but haven't there been studies about global warming and its effects for years?? Share your opinions on this.

America was not quick to react, and the reaction we have now is due mosttly to Al Gores film "An Inconvinient Truth." without this publicity, much of the action taken probably would not have happened. still, our reaction was very similar to the rest of the worlds. the major problem is that many people in try to deny global warming. this has effected some of Bush's descisions as president, such as not participating in the kyoto protocol
America was extremely slow, we knew the energy crisis was going to start around the time of the 1970s, and this was in the 1950s when we knew it was coming, but our actions were very ineffective, we looked for foreign oil to provide energy. On the topic of global warming, America has been very slow to accept the facts that scientists were trying to tell them and they wanted to keep thinking they weren't causing any problems and that everything was fine.
yes its taking to much time. the politicians just talk about it instead of doing things. we should make them try now. let us give them a test instead of just waiting around like a statue. let us see how big their "green foot" is. and im a democratic
America should have reacted to the issue many years ago! Global warming would have been easier to fight if we had attempted to "go green" years ago. We should have done something to help our Earth. Our Earth had done so much for us. We shouldn't be destroying it!
