I recall in the early 60’s that the Great Lakes were dead and many cities had air that was literally deadly at times. We had nuclear sites all over the West polluting vast areas.  President JFK headed the administration at that time.

What is JFK Jr’s solution for our electricity needs right now? If we did not now have these coal plants what is his alternative? Minor modifications like Wal-Mart is not going to solve our present energy requirements. It is also rather strange that JFK Jr. would praise a company that buys almost everything from China that is by far the biggest manufacturing polluter in the world. They are putting new coal plants online nearly everyday without any attempt at pollution controls.

RFK Jr. to climate summit: Bush to blame for bad air — South Florida Sun-Sentinel.com: “‘This is the worst environmental administration we had in our history,’ Kennedy, an ardent and prominent environmental attorney based in New York said during the Florida Summit on Global Climate Change.

It is an allegation the Bush administration has denied and called a politically motivated attack.”
