Richard Pombo, Republican Chairman of House Resources Committee, has asked for a review of Endangered Species Act which protects wildlife. The law is only legal papers protecting remaining rain forests in United States. To round up environmental changes, Congressional leaders have started an offensive against National Environmental Policy Act which requires a thorough look at how major developments effect environment before proceeding. The President of National Environment Trust, Philip Clap, said previous Bush Administration has contended to weaken environmental legislation but now intends to go even further. He said "We will now see an assault on law which will set US in direction of becoming a Third World country in terms of environmental protection."

However, even though wars are a great cause it is not only one. Over 30,000 children died last year which would have been prevented if they had adequate healthcare. Another half a million children under age of 15 died last year and some 2.1 million children across world are living with HIV. Fifteen million children have lost a parent to Aids, while 80 percent of who live in sub-Saharan Africa. Carol Bellamy and Unicef agree that answer is simple. Over last year world’s nations have spent 712,000,000eu on weapons, whereas only 52 billion eu is needed to reach status quo. Currently United States spends over $400 billion a year on military equipment and $200 billion is currently going towards war in Iraq.
