Greenpeace climbers hung a banner on Mount Rushmore challenging President Obama to show real leadership on global warming. The banner, measuring sixty-five feet high by thirty-five feet wide, features an unfinished portrait of Obama with the message, "America honors leaders not politicians: Stop Global Warming."
The demonstration comes as President Obama meets other G8 leaders in L'Aquila, Italy today to discuss the global warming crisis in the lead-up to UN climate treaty negotiations in Copenhagen this December.

One man with a lot of 'power' and he made a lot of promises. Either Obama steps up to the plate and delivers or he doesn't. We all deal with the consequences of polical action, inaction, corruption, and greed. shant om

It is unfair to place all the burden on Obama regarding climate change initiatives. He is but one man in a overly rigid system called politics. Climate change is in the top two pressing issues for the 21st century next to health care allocation.
