This is worth a chuckle. Today’s article in The New York Times on the clear threat of global warming as two paragraphs that are quite amusing and jarring. First…:

At the same time, Secretary of Energy Samuel Bodman rejected the idea of unilateral limits on emissions. “We are a small contributor to the overall, when you look at the rest of the world, so it’s really got to be a global solution,” he said.

Followed closely by:

The United States, with about 5 percent of the world’s population, contributes about a quarter of greenhouse gas emissions, more than any other country.

Another way the second graf could have read would be: Bodman, you liar. I’m not sure that was the intention of the reporters but it sure read that way to me. And it’s the truth.
