Mainstream environmental groups call President Bush the worst environmental president in history. These same groups complained about President Clinton when he and Vice President Al Gore were in office. What did Clinton do that Bush has not done?
President Clinton did not support the Kyoto Protocol. He did not issue mercury regulations. He did sue utilities under the New Source Review regulations (some utilties are now settling), but the Bush administration is pursuing those cases. Maybe Clinton was constrained because a Clean Air Act Amendment was passed two years before he entered office and an energy bill was passed in 1992 when he was entering office.
WHAT DO YOU THINK?
