The U.S. EPA released a new report on greenhouse gas emissions today.
From the press release, here's EPA Administrator Stephen Johnson:
"The Bush Administration has an unparalleled financial, international and domestic commitment to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions," said EPA Administrator Stephen L. Johnson.
Can't argue with that. And don't get me started on their made-up-metric, "greenhouse gas intensity."

Stop Global Warming Virtual March
Global warming isn't opinion. It's a scientific reality. The science tells us that human activity has made enormous impacts to our planet that affect our well-being and even our survival as a species. The science also tells us we can begin to make significant repairs to reverse those impacts -- but only through immediate action. That's why we urge you to join us. The Stop Global Warming Virtual March is virtual but its purpose is real. By spreading the word and sharing this with others, our collective voice will be heard around the world.
Go to www.stopglobalwarming.org to join now
There is no more important cause than the call for action to save the planet on which we live. The evidence is here. The time is now. Add your voice to the over 300,000 already marching. Join us.
By joining THE STOP GLOBAL WARMING VIRTUAL MARCH, we commit to each other that together, as our numbers grow, we will use our collective voices to demand that governments, corporations, and politicians take the steps necessary to stop global warming. Today I join this march, and I take the first step.

It's not a lie
By "unparalleled," he simply means that nobody has been ignoring it more than the Bush administration. You see, if everyone worked on reducing emissions, every line would go down, and therefore would be parallel. The Bush administration is making the line go up, and is therefore perpendicular to everyone else. Or, in other words, unparalleled.

Stop Global Warming Virtual March
Global Warming is a natural effect that is the result of factors that trivialize human contributions by comparison. Anthropogenic Global Warming is an Alarmist Myth, verging on a religion. It is absolutely not science. Precisely how did humans cause the coming and going of the ice ages? How is it that rise in CO2 levels lags nearly 1,000 years behind upward trends in global temperatures? Before you drive for policies that completely cripple the U.S. economy, you may want to take note that the U.S. has reduced CO2 emissions while the illustrious EU has maintained or increased CO2 emissions. We have to be prosperous to afford the technological progress necessary to achieve greater energy efficiency.
