Three leading US senators have joined calls for the US Congress to act and legislate to curb the effects of climate change.

Their remarks come as European leaders appeal to Washington to speed up action to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

3. Trusting Graham and Lieberman on this important
issue is like giving the fox the keys to the henhouse....
:wtf:
Then again, one has to ask what's in it for them - and then maybe we can figure out or predict what they would advocate. :think:
