Comments on: Lisa Murkowski (R-AK): “We must reduce greenhouse gas emissions….

So, look at this not as two separate sides but rather the left and right brain trying to manage with each other in a very unique and important situation.

Impatience is seeing what long term focus has lost it's focus and that a tipping point has been reached. Good and evil? Not possible, if you believe that everyone is part of the same one. So, give Mr Obama time, we could not have dreamed to be in better hands. On pager of course, because I don't have the priveledge of knowing the man personally. So, let's keep the pressure up and not take any risks. Long term focus and impatience are fighting it out.

Come on! The economy has been seriously hurt! (With ample help of the GOP, I might add. Room for the Democrats as well.) Where are these folks coming from? It appears to me that what they mean is not to upset the status quo and the profits of their favorite donors. They certainly are not looking after the well being of JQ Public. If they were, a serious program for sustainability would be the obvious solution to the economic as well as environmental quandary that we now face. “Congress is currently engaged in one of the most complex policy debates of our time – how best to mitigate climate change without harming the economy….”

Getting the right politicians in power to help helps, for sure and in the USA that has been done. So, we can tick that one off and leave them to work hard at getting in place what needs to be in place to facilitate positive change. So what is our job then? Our job is making the change. Take renewable energy for example – there are now so many incentives in the USA that it is now profitable to install our own home energy plants and actually, after just five years, start generating a profit. We need to focus on working these opportunities. If a home can be self reliant on energy production and in time, I believe, food production - we can not only help ourselves to live the lives we dream of but we can bring our planet back into balance and have the knowledge and focus to help move the poor and starving people of our planet to self sustainability, as well.
