Obama “Must Act Now” On Climate Change
The words of leading scientist Prof James McCarthy on the eve of the annual meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS). He stated that the planet will be in “huge trouble” unless Barack Obama makes new progress in tackling climate change, and warned that Obama has just four years to save the planet.
He warned that if major policy changes on climate change do not happen within Mr Obama’s term of office, they will not happen at all.
“The caliber of scientific advice that is close to this man is truly exceptional.
“If in his first term, in the next four years, we don’t make significant progress in these areas, then I think the planet is in huge trouble.
“Without US leadership, which has been sorely lacking, we will not get to where we need to be.”
Climate change is high on the agenda of this year’s AAAS meeting in Chicago, with former US vice president Al Gore among due to speak at the event, with 10,000 scientists expected to attend across five days. Lets hope they get there act in gear and actually agree on something!
