When I mentioned the economy, you said "Good for you and maybe your kids".

Both ways aren’t cheep, one is short sighted and the other will take bold legislation. I’m not saying the the new green deal is the answer, but look what we did when the Russians beat us into space, innovation can happen quickly with the right push.

Show me the proof that if more people walked to work and had solar panels, that the flooding out west would not have happened.

I completely agree that we are seeing more severe weather events.


"innovation can happen quickly with the right push"

Whoever invents practical, affordable green energy, will be the worlds wealthiest person immediately. That's more than enough push. The problem isn't lack of incentive. The problem is physics and nature. You can't make something happen by wanting it badly enough.

I didn't say nuclear is perfect. I said that according to a guy that TIME called a hero of the planet, nuclear is "better" than wind/solar. Not perfect, but better. Less intrusive. Less damaging.

Solar panels would require a massive amount of space to put the panels (you see Nebe, when you build things like solar panels, they have to be put somewhere, we can't just stack them on top of each other), which would require killing god knows how any animals.

You don't understand the difference between the words "perfect", and "better". That's your issue.

Read the article. Tell me why he's wrong. "I don't like his conclusions", doesn't make them wrong.

I went off thread, like that’s the first time anyone has hyjacked a thread. The economy is good, but if we F the environment it won’t mean jack s*it to the generations that follow. Deregulation, appointing people who’s company’s couldn’t care less to head the EPA, pulling out of the Paris accord, Trump has taken a lot of steps to show he really only cares about his term period.

Next time I will start a fresh thread so as to not confuse.
