When President Bush unveiled his plans for a hydrogen-powered car in his State of the Union address in January, he proposed $1.2 billion in spending to develop a revolutionary automobile that will be "pollution-free." The new vehicle, he declared, will rely on "a simple chemical reaction between hydrogen and oxygen" to power a car "producing only water, not exhaust fumes."
Within 20 years, the president vowed, fuel-cell cars will "make our air significantly cleaner, and our country much less dependent on foreign sources of oil." But if he has his way, the cars of tomorrow will run on hydrogen made from fossil fuels.
That has got to be one of the two top deviouse things I have ever heard George Bush was involved with . It can't be just a pipe dream to live using renewable rescourses .

As long as people in power have stock in it, I don't things will really change (even though it's for the better of all)

All the plans to do stuff like that seem a little shady. The thing is, Global warming and the Green house effect only hurt us. the humans. Plants eat CO2. the more the have the faster they will grow. And sunlight is perfect for them too. Now im not saying that i like all the stuff thats going on, but maybe its the plants way of trying to get rid of the VIRUS. We cant live without plants. But plants can live without us.

None of this should come as a big surprise, as President Bush's environmental policies are just as horrible as his economic policies. Sad, but true
