I cannot find a text story about something I heard on npr this weekend past. If any of you know about it, please post. It was about members of Bush's government going around the country to big businesses and having them sign pledges to curtail their environmental polluting. It only ran once, then I heard nothing more.

I did find this, which is somewhat related and of interest: click.

The whole story brought to mind the opening scene of the Simpsons when Bart is writing on the blackboard, "I will not....etc." And, we're supposed to believe that when it comes to big money polluters?!

The other surreal thing which struck me this week is the announcement that Libya was successful in its bid to be named the head of the UN Human Rights division. Ghadafi (sp) must be ecstatic.
