"When I became a political leader," he said, "I saw how badly nature was suffering. Technology has resulted in a major conflict between man and nature."

The United States, as the largest industrialized nation on earth, has the most to lose economically from the green weeny movement, Kyoto would do serious harm to the U.S. economy and Gorbachev knows this as well as anybody.

Gorbachev still has the old Soviet, Communist heart and still seeks to spread the Communist mentality througout the world. In fact, Gorbachev is fully supportive of the "United Religions" movement for a one-world religion that combines all religions, (and thereby destroys all religions). Here is a quote from Gorbachev's Green Cross web page:

"we need a new system of values, a system of the organic unity between mankind and nature and the ethic of global responsibility."

Another Gorbachev quote:

"I believe in the cosmos. All of us are linked to the cosmos. Look at the sun. If there is no sun, then we cannot exist. So nature is my god. To me, nature is sacred. Trees are my temples and forests are my cathedrals."

Damn! Seems if he were serious about all that, he'd be prancing around nekked in a jungle somewhere, talking to the animals, kissing the trees and swatting mosquitos.
