It's so easy to do what you guys do. Just call someone a liberal and other names. Then disparage the science with half truths, It doesn't take a genius for anyone to realize that we are dumping millions of tons of CO2 into the atmosphere while at the same time we are destroying the very things that can balance that out -- things like the rain forest in Brazil.
It is easier to calll someone a tree hugger or whatever than it is to admit the need for change. Conservation iyt isn't easy it's difficult and damned inconvenient. Meanwwhile we burn fossil fuels blindly, not only feeding CO2 into the atmosphere but paying for both ends of the war on terror.
Instead of looking at alternative energy as a problem let's look at it as an opportunity -- an opportunity for the US top create new technologies and new industries and jobs here in the US.
I'm a member of the baby boomer generation and I fear that we will be the first American generation in which the succeeding generations -- my kids and grandkids-- will not have it better than I did. I fear for them and I fear our future because we have closed our minds and decided that driving our SUVs and trucks are more important than our kids' and grandkids' future.
