As a follow-up to my last entry on the Bush administration's environmental legacy and NRDC's new timeline, President Bush himself defended his environmental record yesterday, citing the protection of marine parks as the capstone of his adminsitration. While the marine protection will have some significant impact for protecting our oceans, my colleague Sarah Chasis points out some of the shortcomings of these new regulations.

By coincidence, Fox News contacted us regarding Bush's legacy and wrote up two stories (here and here). It's not everyday that an environmentalist gets quality coverage from Fox.

With 13 days to go until America has a new president, we have plenty of time to add in some new entries into the timeline.
