From the conference:
For now, the U.S. stands alone as the only major industrialized country to reject the Kyoto agreement on climate change, which is set to expire in 2012. But Congress is nearing approval of an energy bill that would include raising fuel standards for passenger vehicles for the first time in 30 years. It would require a fleet-wide average of 35 miles per gallon by 2020.
Hope this helps

Since cons keep bringing it up. How many of those 22 Chinese kids attacked by a knife died?
thomas_pai
I'm waiting for an answer.
ANSWER: NONE!
None of those Chinese kids died. I would rather have 22 wounded children than 22 dead children.

antiliberal,
The point is that they are wounded and not dead like they would have been if the wacko used an assault weapon.

For people who use the knives do not kill as many people argument I say this. It still does not resolve the issue of violence. Killing less people is not a trade off. There is no indication of how bad the injuries are; are they maimed scared on their face. It is still trauma. To even suggest it is ok to remove guns because at least not as many will die is asinine. England has a gun ban and they did not have any where near as many guns as we do now. The murders in England have not gone down with the banning of guns. The amount of murders with guns have been an even exchange for murders with knives. Casket sales are still up and that is the change we need to make. So the guns kill more at one time is a moot point. It is a behavior issue, not a weapons issue.
