Hi ,
Our cars and trucks account for 20 percent of our country's greenhouse gas emissions. The Obama administration knows this -- that's why they fought for better fuel economy standards.
But the rules that would go into effect don't go far enough. In fact, loopholes for SUVs mean that, even with higher standards, our greenhouse gas emissions will still continue to rise.
The European Union, Japan and even China are far ahead of the United States when it comes to fuel efficiency. By carving out loopholes for big, gas-guzzling vehicles, we're giving automakers an out to keep the status quo and falling farther behind.
The U.S. is one of the biggest emitters. We need to set an example and reign in our greenhouse gases to save our planet from a perilous fate. Tell the Obama administration to close the SUV loophole in its fuel efficiency standards »
Thanks for taking action!

Like all libs, they are wrong and 3rd world countries emit more co2 then developed nations.
What on earth is a "perilous fate" and why do I suspect the author has the scientific, political, and rhetorical sophistication of a small child?
It's not fair.
“... The Obama administration knows this — that’s why they fought for better fuel economy standards....”
Right there you’ve proved that you and your team are blithering idiots...aliens to applied mathematics and most probably holding degrees in advanced feminimism or perhaps boinkless boinking.
Please shove your ideas into your smelly Obamas and try to produce less C02 by holding your breaths...forevah!

to even entertain the thought that your vehicle, or that of your neighbor, has anything at all to do with the climate on a planet is assininity at its highest....
It's what happened to the SS Minnow after a 3-hour tour.
