I'm not a big fan of a number of Republican policies. This is one of several ideas I had for illustrations commenting on those issues.

This piece was in response to Bush's rejection of the Kyoto Treaty—an international treaty to reduce greenhouse emissions. The Clinton administration was a key player in its negotiation, but when Bush came in, it all went out the window. Why? Because the GOP is in bed with big corporations and share holders who don't want to cut emissions because it will cut into profits. Money is more important than the health of the planet.
