...or at least among the worst polluting country in the world, isn't it time for the rest of the world to order the US to take measures to stop polluting like that? The USA are always doing whatever they want regarding the international agreements (respecting them or not)...Should we let this situation continue like that?
This article talks a lot about the USA, but I think all the nations in the world should take a serious look at the current ecological situation and do whatever they can to improve the situation. What matters to us now may be profits and comfort...but think about what our children will think about us when they'll realise the dump they live in was still a paradise not so long ago...

By reading this (pessimistic) article, it seems to me that this massive exploitation of the natural ressources has to stop. There's nothing new here...but I think we must all think about what we're doing to our planet when we're supporting McDonald's, when we're driving our SUVs, when we're throwing everything in the garbage instead of recycling whatever we can, etc.
