Why do people think george bush caused Global Warming?

Question

How can one person that people dont like, casue it? even without us on the planet, we still had global warming.

Answer 1

Liberals think he's the devil incarnate. They'll  blame him for anything and everything if they think it'll advance their agendas.

Answer 2

Well everything causes global warming, so it's only natural that Bush caused it too.

Also global warming causes all bad things, so it becomes cyclic redundancy after a while.

I can't wait for sponge bob & dana squarepants to respond.

Answer 3

cuz of his big head idk

Answer 4

Bush didn't cause it.  He did make things worse, and precious time was lost during his 8 years in office.  

1)  Upon taking office he immediately deferred enforcement of the environmental protection act, leaving the states pretty much helpless to enforce it themselves.  His famous phrase "the jury is still out on Global Warming" sowed the seeds of ignorance for most of the DENIER/skeptics.  Both pollution and Global Warming accelerated  and quickly exceeded a manageable level.

2)  He withheld any serious participation in international efforts regarding these problems.  That pretty much put those efforts in a holding pattern until he renounced his stance last year.  That's a classic political maneuver, dumping the problem on the next administration.

3)  In the absence of US leadership, many countries have implemented alternative fuel programs that are doomed to futility.  Those programs have led to rapid deforestation and ultimately, greater dependence on Middle Eastern oil.

Answer 5

Because many on the left blame GW for everything.

Answer 6

Oh, don't forget that global warming causes an increase in alien abductions and perpetuates the immigration problem...  Can't forget those!  I am sure square dana studied those facts as well.

Answer 7

That facist jack*** is responsible for Global Warming, rain forest deforestation and ruining prestine Alaska with his oil buddies. He's messed up losts of things, including our environment.

Answer 8

the us is the number one greenhouse contributer nomatter what we may think or try to deny it is is the USA and not china weird ah

the president has done little to help the situation

Answer 9

-_-

Name one person who thinks that.

No one thinks Bush caused global warming.

Answer 10

No one claims that.

However he has been a terrible president when it concerns the environment.  He  and other Republicans in Congress block any legislation that will make a real difference.  He appointed oil company lobbyists to head the EPA and Dept. of the Interior.  

  He had his lawyers change the wording of the climate change study, done by the Federal govt, so that the report ended up sounding inconclusive, which it wasn't,  in it's original form.  One leading scientist had to quit so he could go public with the truth about this.

Answer 11

Global warming is a mob mentality.  They cruse the news looking for the 'right' people to hate.

Bush, XOM, Republicans, Christians, people who drive big cars, own big homes, (unless they believe as well) and "skeptics" are all acceptable to hate.

Answer 12

Strange:  I cannot name the names, but the four people who gave you a thumbs down are some of them.

Answer 13

you must be thinking of the burning bush in the bible ,if that went walking about it would cause bush fires

But how ever this Bush wished he was that other one ,he is not, i assure you

Answer 14

President Bush is blamed for warming up Mars too

Answer 15

People don't think that.  If any do, they're retarded.  Global Warming existed way before Bush.

Answer 16

No one, above the IQ of 50, has ever said George Bush caused global warming.  So the premise of your question is false.

Global warming is the result of over 200 years of human activity (land clearing, greenhouse gas emissions).  Some people may accuse George Bush of not doing enough to help reduce the impact of global warming, but that's entirely different from saying he caused it.

And FYI, just because forest fires occurred before humans, doesn't mean humans can't cause forest fires.  Likewise, just because the planet has heated up in the past before humans, doesn't mean humans can't be causing it now.

Answer 17

He is blamed because he voted against having regulations for daily emissions limits in the air (pollutants from cars and other things)...every other country has limits to the amount of pollution you can put in the air (except US)because George Bush voted against this....

Google Kyoto conference.

Answer 18

He's blamed for so many idiotic things I'm just glad he's big enough to take it.
