Asheville's a "Cool City" – officially

When President George W. Bush pulled the United States out of the Kyoto Protocol, an agreement to curb global warming by reducing fossil-fuel emissions, a grassroots movement sprung up in municipalities across the country to commit cities to the international agreement's pollution-reduction goals.

Asheville NC's outgoing mayor, Charles Worley, became the 188th city leader to sign the U.S. Mayors Climate Protection agreement on Nov. 16.

Bush didn't think the Kyoto treaty was a priority? He may chop it off at the federal level knees, but concerned people are finding a way around it by taking it to the streets. Well, to the cities and states. So... can't we find a way to do that with a presidential election and leap-frog the sheeple's choice?
