We really need to view Global Warming like some of us view God, we should believe in it, just incase we're right. The debate should be over, scientists on both sides should just give up and all of us should act as if it is a real threat. Liberals and Conservatives need to get past the pigeon holing stereotypes that Conservative means love Bush, pro war, anti gay and anti environment. We should CONSERVe the environmnent, CONSERVe our resources, CONSERVe our savings accounts, CONSERVe the Federal Reserve. Naturally growing fuel in the US or using renewable fuel is of course better than importing from Saudis and Venezuela. The oil in the ground of the USA is best left there as a strategic reserve for the future, just in case.
Lower emissions, Higher miles per gallon are all CONSERVATiVE use of resources. There is a small town out in Indiana, where everything in the town is powered by renewable fuels, this is a brilliant model that every town in the US should be striving for. We do not need too much government or nanny state ideals to achieve it, just lots of education and leadership by everyone with the means. America should be racing to be the first at achieving this, imagine sitting back and being totally self sufficient, while watching India, China and Russia all compete for oil from Iran, Venezuela and the Saudis, if that is not a recipe for war I don't know what is, but one thing is for sure, it would be nice if we could choose whether or not to particpate in it, would n't it?
Just for the record, for all those who shouted "Blood for Oil" on the streets of America, UK and Europe, are you aware that all the oil contracts in Iraq so far have gone to countries other than the US? Are you aware that not one extra drop of oil has come to the US since the invasion? Are you aware that if the US market was suddenly flooded with Iraqi oil, the supply would go up and the prices would be going down not up? Oil companies in the US are benefitting most from NOT having their hands on Iraqi oil, the supply is low, so the prices are going up and up and up.
