"Tiny Hands off our lands"
I like this one.
I am super pissed that these fucking senators snuck Arctic National Wildlife Refuge drilling into this tax bill. I've been calling and writing my congressional reps and senators since the 1990's to stop that garbage and they sneak it into a tax reform bill.
Notice anything about these countries? We have enough problems with getting away from fossil fuels in the most technologically advanced nation in the world, what do you expect developing countries to do? Fossil fuels are cheap. Developing countries can't afford to waste valuable funds on developing or implementing renewable energy sources that will not provide cheap energy and most importantly, economic growth to their citizens and economy. It is unfortunate, but our longtime reliance of fossil fuels has hamstrung our renewable energy progress and hence, our ability to deploy technology in these situations. In 15-20 years, we would be able to provide the technology to developing nations to pop up a fusion plant or solar farm, but it isn't feasible. That is why I am concerned about Trump, we are poised to continue leading the world in renewable energy development, but Trump is a known climate change denier and is surrounding himself with a like minded cabinet.
Continue leading the world in renewable energy? Maybe in total production because we're a yuge country but by percentage we're way behind even average. And one of the 3 "developing" countries the article mentioned was Australia. We 're not helping them develop, we're making money by building shit we couldn't get away with here, to their detriment.
LNG is a viable alternative fuel, especially in Australia where a vast majority of their power is generated by Brown and Black coal.
So progressives are going to stick with "not being a CO2 alarmist" = "climate denier" rhetoric, eh? LOL. If progressives can't be honest about the opinions of others, why should anyone believe anything else they say on the topic?
Can’t find if we have a climate change thread
So I’ll just put this here
Clear your website data if needed to read the various pieces here: 2017: The Year in Climate
