i see you have abandoned any attempt to answer the questions i posed to you and chose to demonize someone who is basically a caricature anyway. nice sidestep.
I can find the quote but you will have to ask for it. There is video tape of the current president explaining that for green technology to be viable the current cost for coal and natural gas would necessarily have to skyrocket.
The president and the environmentalists, wants to raise taxes on gas and coal, to make green energy competitive... P.S. It is not a conspiracy. The president has clearly outlined his plan on video tape for your enjoyment.
That would be silly... I AGREED THAT THE CLIMATE WAS CHANGING IN MY FIRST POST.
Which issue? The debate over global warming being man made?
Could you please link to any proof of this?
That's nice....but what planet do you live on?
Earth...
Cheap compared with other sources of energy.
This is a cliche...
Have you seen what a landfill looks like once a golf course is planted over it? Do you realize how much cleaner America is than just 100 years ago? There were rivers that caught on fire due to pollution back in the 20's I believe.
Corporations. They do it all the time. When the price of oil skyrocketed above 80 dollars a barrel the cost of the energy would have allowed them to harvest it from shale. At a lower price it is not economical to do this because their are CHEAPER ways to get oil.
Again, cap and trade is a tax on gas and coal to force green energy such as solar and wind to be more competitive.
because sustainable energies with their ROI are such a horrible idea...why would i want make the investment to put solar panels on my house and be making money every month when i could be paying money every month for the electric company to burn coal and send me the result on a horribly inefficient and antiquated power grid?
i already posted an article about exxonmobil funding efforts to obfuscate the issue, which has been going on since 2007. they are using a campaign very similar to what big tobacco did...in fact, they even used some of the same groups that were established to dent the effects of secondhand smoke. but i guess you don't read it unless it is fox news....so here you go again.
I wouldn't swear to this, but I think I saw on a documentary that a 4 degree change in global average temperatures would be catastrophic. It's been a while back, but I think that's what they said. If I'm right there, and I apologize for not being able to give a reference, then 1 degree is much more significant than it might seem.
How do electric cars solve the problem if the majority of electricity is still produced from coal or oil? Why is it none of the environmentalists ever support horse and buggies? Or are you really of the idea if you don't see it burn oil it doesn't happen?
i think i flew on a plane with you into colorado springs.
I've always wanted to be a survivalist. I've been bit by a rattlesnake and by a copperhead on different occasions. That's all it took to keep me out of them there woods. I won't never go back. More power to you bro.
i don't really care so much, i've said before i come here to troll for lolz. watching stoners disagree with the experts in the field is easy pickings.
while i find it creepy that you stalk me and thus know my personal habits, i would like to point out some things you might have missed while on break from your 24/7 surveillance of my daily activities. i brush my teeth out of a glass of water. i follow the 'yellow leave it mellow' philosophy (only in my bathroom, my wife is not a subscriber to this policy). i replaced 20+ incandescents in my home with cfls (admittedly, i had them left over from previous grows, but it still counts). i turn of lights when i leave rooms. i unplug everything in my house when i go on vacation. i often take public transportation (again, partly selfish, i like to ride the train while i am high rather than drive). i support companies with a green focus. i wait until 4,500 miles to change the oil intead of 3K. I carry renewable bags to the grocery store. i cross state lines to recycle all my cans and bottles once a month (again, selfish since i make money off of doing so). i support candidates who lobby for the environment. i could probably name a few more, that is all that comes to mind offhand.
agreed. which is why it is fun to troll. sometimes it even makes people question their own logic...which is never a bad thing. i prefer a viewpoint that constantly evolves based on new information rather than one that stays stuck for the sake of avoiding cognitive dissonance.how redundant is this whole politics section? same 100 arguments, day in and day out. NONE of you have ever won a single one of them.
My '86 accord has been running off the same oil since '96. I've added to it but that's about it. You can't get any greener than that. Stop polluting the world with your waste oil.
