I am so happy you’ve brought this up. I’m a Brit living in Los Angeles, California, and I’m intensely interested in the American election, particularly with a hope the the new government will address climate change.
My biggest hope is that the Democrats win, and that whoever is President, whether it’s Obama or Clinton, will publicly invite Al Gore to become National Climate Advisor.
This is a major issue not just for America, but for the survival of the human race.

]]>Live Earth just picked up this topic and put out an article ( http://www.liveearth.org/news.php ) live earth is also asking why the presidential candidates are not being solicited for their stance on the issue of the climate change. I just saw a poll on http://www.EarthLab.com that says people care a lot about what their next leader thinks of global warming. Does anyone know of another poll or other results about this subject?
Here is the page where I saw the EarthLab poll: http://www.earthlab.com/life.aspx. This is a pretty legit website; they are endorsed by Al Gore and the alliance for climate protection and they have a carbon footprint calculator. Does anyone have a strong opinion about this like I do? No matter what your political affiliation is or who you vote for this is an important issue for our environment, our economy and for homeland security.
