I READ the letter of Bill Shaw, urging us to write to President Bush asking him to keep the agreement on global warming (April 19). I say save your paper and postage, because he will take not one iota of notice.

He was elected illegally and his thoughts are: "We are the greatest nation in the world. We can please ourselves we can do as we like".

Don't waste your time asking them, the Yanks are ruining the world.
