Global Warming

Global warming is a big issue. It pollutes our air and kills 10 thousand each year. Obama feels that we need to use less oil products and more solar power. He says he can fix this problem with our help. Obama promised to cut greenhouse gases during a pair of speeches today in College Park and Baltimore. He pledged to put mandatory caps on carbon dioxide emissions from industry. He talked about it often enough to imply it was one of his top priorities, along with getting the U.S. out of Iraq by the end of 2009, extending health insurance to all Americans, preventing insurance companies from denying coverage because of pre-existing medical conditions, raising fuel efficiency standards for all vehicles to 40 m.p.g., fixing up crumbling schools and improving America's standing in the world by using more diplomacy to deal with our enemies. I feel that this is a good idea because using solar energy instead of oil products will not use oil so that the price of gas won’t be so expensive. If McCain is elected he will establish a market-based system to curb greenhouse gas emissions, mobilize innovative technologies, and strengthen the economy. He will work with our international partners to secure our energy future, to create opportunities for American industry, and to leave a better future for our children. McCain says he will clean up the planet and make global warming a priority. I also like this idea of emissions and technologies. Its better to use these ideas than to think about using oil products.
