One step behind is a tribute to this so called "GREAT" country, the United States of America.
The United States of America has always been ONE STEP behind. We have been one step behind in regards to the environment and global warming. An Inconvenient Truth exposes how this country has always been one step behind in regards to taking care of this planet. Our continued dependence on oil has contributed significantly to harming the Earth, animals, environment, and people. Corporations in the United States have been so busy making money and focusing the PRESENT, that in the process they trampled the FUTURE. I mean if we had been working on other methods for automobiles to operate 10 or 20 years ago, we likely could have curbed global warming back then. BUT, corporations wanted to keep focusing on where the money was currently at and NOT focusing on where the money would eventually be at. The problem with major corporations is that they get complacent with their products and services and instead of planning ahead. Our country OPERATES in HINDSIGHT! As Americans, we are constantly learning from our mistakes rather than avoiding them to begin with! China's pollution is probably one of the greatest contributors to the negative effects on the environment. China's government revealed that the pollution China caused was twice as severe as initially reported in 2007.

America's failure to capitalize on the market for environmentally friendly energy is the reason America's economy is struggling right now. We could have been the #1 producer of environmentally friendly power and exporting our technology to countries like China. America could have created jobs for the future in renewable energy, but instead President Bush Sr. was too busy sucking OFF the Middle East so we could keep getting cheap oil, we missed the economical highway to the future, and now our environment is suffering just like our economy. America missed the ticket into a clean future and now if we aren't killed by terrorists, we will be lucky if we don't destroy the remaining natural resources that God left for us to survive on.
Food. Water. Shelter.
That all man used to need to be happy.
Man destroyed the Earth for the same reason he destroyed relationships.... because he got bored.
Algae can be converted into bio fuels. Thanks ExxonMobil, 25 years too late. I guess now is better than never. America does not control its own destiny anymore. America lost sight of and was distracted by so many things, what can you do.
Is global warming a hoax? Will our world come to an end by the year
2016? The earth is following a millennium pattern moving closer and further
away from the sun. Global satellite data
has shown that there have been no signs of global warming over the past 18 years.
Studies show that there was actually greater global warming between the 10th
and 15th centuries.
Al Gore presents us with catastrophic hypothetical's
insisting that CO2 is the cause of the rising temperatures. There is no data to
prove this- hence- a global warming hoax. His documentary 'Inconvenient Truth’,
seems to be more of an inconvenient lie causing another fear factor among the
American population and the global warming hoax that is still in debate today.
His scare tactics obviously worked. Millions of Americans are in a panic. Some
think that because of the high C02 emissions, the world is coming to an end. And
so you have it-a nation running around in panic –with no data to prove this
global warming hoax.
Are Americans really the cause of global warming? Not true!
Only 13% of scientists agree that a great climactic change will occur due to
our patterns of energy use. Did you know that carbon dioxide emissions are not
largely responsible for global warming? Most of the earths warming occurred before
the year 1940. Will global warming continue to cause rising sea levels and hurricanes
or is this another global warming hoax? The IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on
Climate Change) argues that this is not true and that sea levels rose over 300
feet more over 18 thousand years ago. So why are so many politicians squawking
over global warming? They continue to blame China as the #1 contributor of carbon emissions
as compared to the U.S. -another
global warming hoax. Political gain has been around for years and this global
warming hoax is another way for them to be noticed.

While it s true that there has been a shift in the worlds
climate due to the activity of mankind, I don’t think it warrants a global
panic. The global warming hoax has caused great alarm but there’s no need to
lose control without the facts. Yes, our atmosphere is altering and throwing
off normal cycles throwing them off balance. Yes Sea
levels are rising and glaciers are melting. So what is really going on? Why are
we calling this a global warming hoax? Bureaucrats thriving on power and greed
have jumped on board of this global warming hoax, exploiting a lie and causing mayhem.
The global warming hoax is over exaggerated and while it certainly needs to be
addressed, the nation needs to take a chill pill, but pollution is a serious contributing factor and a problem.

Yet some Scientists will argue that we certainly need to
take a good look at our long life patterns and how we've done our part in
polluting the atmosphere. Our planet is dying and species are becoming extinct.
Deforestation is plummeting, and natural disasters are occurring at an alarming
rate. So the question remains” Is there really a global warming hoax? Or is the
global warming hoax merely a hoax?
