Barack Obama's election as U.S President could well be a turning point, not just for that nation, but for the entire world as well. I have to emphasize the word could, because of the possibilities that now exist to finding a solution for the world's climate change problems, provided it is not just empty rhetoric of another smooth-talking politician. I honestly think that this man means what he says most of the time, but you never know. And I have been wrong before! :-(
From a President who didn't believe climate change existed to one who has already articulated his views emphatically, is a significant and huge transformation waiting to happen, since a lot hinges on how the largest economy and the biggest polluting nation tackles emissions and leads the way to making this planet greener and cleaner. Here's keeping fingers crossed.
