The correct answer is: He felt that the United States would shoulder an unequal part of the economic burden.
1. President Bush opposed the Kyoto Protocol because he believed that the United States would bear an unfair share of the economic costs associated with the treaty.
2. The Kyoto Protocol aimed to reduce greenhouse gas emissions to combat climate change. However, President Bush was concerned that the agreement would disproportionately impact the U.S. economy compared to other countries.
3. The Protocol required participating countries to set binding targets for reducing their greenhouse gas emissions. President Bush felt that these targets would hinder U.S. economic growth and competitiveness.
4. As a result, President Bush argued that the Kyoto Protocol was not in the best interest of the United States and chose not to ratify the agreement during his presidency.
