Ok, Bart and others who are like minded, exactly how would the USA look to become the green country you seem to think it should be.?

You and others seem to know what we need to do, so why not just list it?

Your Senate just elected a king, so 2 of them is one too many.

But you could try reading this book:
DRAWDOWN
The most comprehensive plan ever proposed to reverse Global warming
https://www.drawdown.org/the-book
Quote
Drawdown describes the 100 most substantive solutions to global warming. For each solution, we describe its history, the carbon impact it provides, the relative cost and savings, the path to adoption, and how it works. The goal of the research that informs Drawdown is to determine if we can reverse the buildup of atmospheric carbon within thirty years. All solutions modeled are already in place, well understood, analyzed based on peer-reviewed science, and are expanding around the world.

Oh how wrong you can be.  The Senate "elected" nothing, but I digress.

Describe in your own terms Bart, not chimp it.

So now we're supposed to read a book.  Can;t you sum it up?  After all, congress isn't going to legislate a book with 100 ideas.  How about providing three legislative recommendations, their costs, and time frame?  Also, how much reduction in CO2 we'll get and how long to get it.  You're the one who wants to sell the idea.  Never ask the buyer to do the work if you want to make a sale.

One more pointless, inflammatory post like that, Peter, and you're gone for a while.

Craig,

The easiest way to move forward would be elect a reasonable President.

All the rest is going to follow naturally.

Obama was perfectly fine to give you one recent example.

Cheers,
Bernard

Things are different if you live in America.  You;re more concerned with jobs, the economy, taxes, health care, retirements, Social Security, Medicare, cost of education, etc.  The climate, while important, has less importance in the scheme of things.

Sure... the 95.75% of the world's population not living in the US have the liberty to care about the threat paused by climate change on the common future of this planet because they don't have to care about jobs, taxes, health care,...  ;D ;D ;D

Really?

But anyway, get the President right and things will fall in place as they should.

Cheers,
Bernard

As Jay Leno would say: it's hilarious!

The very things that have people "concerned" in the US include, apparently, many that a resonable ammount of common sense national caring would mostly resolve. "Don't you dare stop me drowning! Only I may be permitted to stop myself drowning; don't intrude upon my civil choices!"

You couldn't make this stuff up in a rational environment.

The whole page so far filled with sheer deflection. Not a single beep to answer the posed question. It figures. Ok, guys, spit it out... what else, apart from not having children?
