I must have missed all the publicity he used to push this to insure he was properly credited for his "legacy". Whatever you think of Bush, actions taken didn't seemed to be about his concern for popularity or approval rating. A less foam flecked report from the raving Bush supporters at CNN: http://edition.cnn.com/2009/TECH/01/05/bush.conservation/ I don't recall much, if anything, the previous administration did of note in the first 6 years, despite having the Global Warming poster boy as VP and the Kyoto Treaty, which he didn't send to Congress, in play. Extraction of resources on public lands were accelerated. The savage logging rider cleared more public land of timber ever. No energy policy. Yes he did a flurry of green activity in his last few months in office, but if you are looking for steps taken to shore up a legacy, the Greens owe Monica a great debt. http://tech.mit.edu/V117/N28/hove.28o.html http://www.greenleft.org.au/2007/700/36357 Bile must be the house wine of those with Bush Derangement Syndrome.
