Bush backing off key environmental issue launched by his father.(Knight Ridder Newspapers)
WASHINGTON _ The Bush administration is backing off a key global environmental initiative launched by the president's father, the first President Bush, who proposed restricting trade in the wood from world's dwindling mahogany forests.
Before this weekend's worldwide Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species in Santiago, Chile, the current Bush administration has announced that it is "neutral" and "undecided" on plans to tighten trade in bigleaf mahogany from Latin America. Being neutral offers the United States a better chance to broker a deal, the chief U.S. negotiator said, but environmentalists are criticizing the move as a rollback.
"This is betraying a decade of work by American administrations," said Christopher Hatch, executive director of the Rainforest Action Network, a San Francisco-based environmental group.
