"In a campaign dominated by terrorism and the economy, many equally important issues have been left off the table. Environmental policy is one such issue, and may be where the candidates differ most dramatically.

If President Bush is reelected, it will mean a continuation of the policies we have seen in the past four years.

If elected, John Kerry pledges to "reverse the damage of the Bush assault on our environment and take aggressive steps to clean our air and water."
