Have you ever heard of Al Gore or T. Boone Pickins? These are two other Americans that come to mind who are "campaigning" to reduce Global Warming. Additionally many other countries besides America are concerned with climate change. In fact there was a meeting in Copenhagen in December to discuss the problem and before that on September 26, "nearly 4,000 people gathered in 38 countries spanning six continents to consider what should happen at the UN climate change negotiation this December in Copenhagen" according to <a href="http://www.yesmagazine.org/planet/world2019s-citizens-to-politicians-get-serious-on-global-warming-now" rel="nofollow">Yes Magazine</a> and <a href="http://astc.org/iglo/2009/10/world-wide-views-on-global-warming-a-new-role-for-science-centers/" rel="nofollow">IGLO</a>, the association for International Action on Global Warming. Granted, COP15 made little progress, but at least they did sit down and discuss climate change, which is, in itself, an historical event. From the <a href="http://topics.nytimes.com/top/reference/timestopics/subjects/u/united_nations_framework_convention_on_climate_change/index.html?scp=3&sq=cop15&st=cse" rel="nofollow">New York Times</a>: "Representatives of 192 nations gathered in Copenhagen to seek a consensus on an international strategy for fighting global warming, in a series of meetings between Dec. 7 and Dec. 18, 2009. ...never before have global leaders come so close to a significant agreement to reduce the greenhouse gases linked to warming the planet". It's clear that the US isn't the only country concerned with climate change. It certainly is not only the US President who is concerned about climate change. Have you ever heard of Al Gore or T.

It’s clear that the US isn’t the only country concerned with climate change.
