New York Times: Bush, Campaigning in Florida, Promotes the Environment

President Bush sought to burnish his environmental credentials again today, this time in the state that was the most bitterly contested of all in 2000, Florida.

Mr. Bush, in a noontime speech at the Rookery Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve, noted that this is National Volunteer Week. "This week, we observed Earth Day, and one way to honor the day is to honor those citizens in our country who understand the definition of stewardship, citizens who work to make sure that our environment is as clean as possible."

Meanwhile, in Yosemite yesterday, Bush's Interior Secretary thought she was going to do an Earth Day photo op, but instead was "peppered with questions" on the administration's commitment to rebuild park facilities after a federal judge halted the work.
