Time magazine said it this time

It's not just the eco-nuts; now Time has reported that we screwed up the environment to the point where a big change is going to be very hard to stop. They're talking fires and droughts and no more ice caps in fifty or sixty years, which I think will be hard to ignore, much as the current administration would like to. Encouragingly, by signing the US Mayors Climate Protection Agreement, more than 200 mayors around the country have decided that since Bush and Co. aren't interested in the Kyoto treaty to reduce emissions, they'll go ahead with it themselves. That's pretty impressive, but I hope it's not a useless gesture in that they end up doing it from little Waterworld-esque atolls.
