From Screwed:
"The powers that be are running roughshod over the powers that OUGHT to be. Hartmann tells us what went wrong — and what you and I can do to help set American right again."
From Screwed:
"Thom Hartmann’s book explains in simple language and with concrete research the details of the Neo-con’s war against the American middle class. It proves what many have intuited and serves to remind us that without a healthy, employed, and vital middle class, America is no more than the richest Third World country on the planet."
From Cracking the Code:
"No one communicates more thoughtfully or effectively on the radio airwaves than Thom Hartmann. He gets inside the arguments and helps people to think them through—to understand how to respond when they’re talking about public issues with coworkers, neighbors, and friends. This book explores some of the key perspectives behind his approach, teaching us not just how to find the facts, but to talk about what they mean in a way that people will hear."
Thom has been fighting this thing for 2 decades and so far not much has been done. We still use fossil fuels for 86% of our energy in this country and that puts masive amounts of CO2 in the upper atmosphere causing the greenhouse effect.
It is my contention we go to nuclear, at least until the greenhouse gas crisis is stopped and then perhaps go to something "safer" although statistically the only safer form of energy is wind. In 20 years France went from zero to 80% nuclear without a single problem. They now supply other countries with energy from the overabundance thanks to nuclear.
As to the poll, I agree we should not sit on ours hands, which is why I clicked on YES. However it is a sure bet that big oil will prevent any meaningful legislation on this issue, until money IS taken out of politics.
Climate deniers are spitting in the wind. The cleaner, greener future is coming, like the auto replacing the horse and buggy, and they can't stop it. People are not waiting around for the government. Solar farms are going up, as are wind farms. Some coal- powered plants are shutting down. They can make noise, but the future is already happening around us.
climate change:
the climate adapting to people not changing
an ongoing corporate policy created global catastrophe, denied by the corporate party's Republicans and ignored by the corporate party's Democrats
an opportunity for liberal cap & traders to profit greatly from bundling pollution swap credits, while short-selling futures for human survival
Crime of the Millennials:
the Millennial Generation ensuring catastrophic climate change will happen, by their choosing to join together with the degenerate (Greatest and My) generations in support of the corporate (R) & (D) party's sociopathic policies
