Even as President Bush tries to sabotage California’s proposed auto mileage standards, U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice said the world needs a revolution in energy that transcends oil, gas and coal to prevent problems from climateย change.

The Administration’s position on climate change has become increasingly muddled โ€“ with the President telling large Asian emitters they will need only to cut their โ€œenergy intensityโ€ 25 percent by 2050, even as John Marburger, the President’s Science Adviser declared that climate change is โ€œman made.โ€ He made that statement around the same time a federal judge rebuked the Bush Administration for refusing to release the National Assessment on the impacts of climate change in the US.
