What are the presidential candidates views on issues related to the environment?

It can be difficult to muddle through the spin and rhetoric of such a hotly contested election.

Betty wants to link you to the facts and I trust you will be able to draw your own conclusions. As a a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization, Better World Betty cannot and does not endorse individual candidates or political parties. While we advocate on issues, support or oppose proposed laws and regulations, and speak out about actions taken by public officials, we do not support or oppose candidates themselves.

If you would like your leaders to seek solutions to global warming; if you believe in conservation, rather than exploitation of our wildlife and environment; if you want the United States to take a lead role in renewable and clean energy and increasing the fuel economy in our fleet; if you believe we can live a better, cleaner, greener life with the help of our government, check out these sites:

Then tell your friends, family, neighbors, strangers in grocery lines, to check the facts. And if you are willing and able between now and November 4th (tomorrow it's a mere 50 days away), find a way to ACT on these convictions.

Best,
