Clinton says we need to get off our butts and do more about Global Warming.

Too bad you didn't do more when you were president, Bill

My Way News:

"AUSTIN, Texas (Reuters) - Former President Bill Clinton said on Saturday global warming is a greater threat to the future than terrorism and that the United States and other countries must 'get off our butts' and do something about it.
Clinton, speaking to the graduating class at University of Texas' Lyndon B. Johnson School of Public Affairs, said the United States must pursue policies that make 'more partners and fewer enemies' and use 'institutionalized cooperation' before there is catastrophic damage from global warming.

'Climate change is more remote than terror but a more profound threat to the future of the children and the grandchildren and the great-grandchildren I hope all of you have,' Clinton said.

'It's the only thing we face today that has the power to remove the preconditions of civilized society,' he said."
