The IMPORTANT question about climate change is: "How do we stop it?" NOT "What caused it?" We need to DO something... Not argue about why...

While Climate Change Deniers distract us from the REAL question... EPA is helping the Fossil Fuel industry pollute the world... Let's stop mining COAL and let's stop Burning Oil... Let's stop FRACKING...

The answer is SOLAR and WIND power. Close all COAL fired Power Plants.

How to save A LOT of Electricity and help prevent Global  Warming... It's EASY!

Simply MOVE all marijuana farms OUTDOORS and grow the plants in the Sunshine instead of using Gro-Lights. Currently there are thousands of clandestine farms indoors using millions of fluorescent lights... The electricity that powers those lamps is often generated by burning natural gas or coal... Creating greenhouse gasses that cause Global Warming  and Climate Change. For Example: All farms in Colorado are indoors... wasting electricity.

Another simple thing we could do is MOVE the Workplace closer to where people live. Many people work at office jobs... AND... Offices can be located in the anywhere. For Example: Google, Facebook and Twitter are all located in the Bay Area... those jobs could be done in Chico, Eureka, Sacramento or Mendocino where house prices are lower and there are fewer traffic jams... Current employees that own a house could sell their house for a Million Dollars and then buy a similar house for $300,000... AND PUT $700,000 IN THEIR POCKET.  Quality of life is better without a two hour commute in traffic jams. We have the technology to move corporate headquarters to locations close to where people live. Simply map where the employees live move the workplace. That would save a LOT of Gasoline and Improve the people's mood leading to higher productivity.

Another simple thing we could do is convert Exercise bicycles and treadmills into electricity  generators. Millions of people visit health clubs every day. Why not create electricity on the gym machines? Simply spin an alternator using the kinetic energy created by burning Human Fat. Sell that electricity to PG&E or SoCal Edison.

We should TRY to prevent Climate Change no matter what the cause is. Deniers often focus on the wrong question.

If we stop polluting the air, IT MIGHT STOP GLOBAL WARMING...
If we take no action, we are guaranteed to fail. 

Climate Change Deniers often switch the discussion to what he cause is... man made or natural... but that does not really matter... That's just a "Red Herring" to distract attention to the real question. "What should we do?"

Climate Change Deniers are often paid by the Fossil Fuel Industry to write articles that recommend we continue burning oil, gas and coal... Protecting Profits. 


Climate Change Deniers often agree that The Climate IS Changing but it cause is not man's behavior.

 They say that even if we stop polluting the air the climate will do what it is going to do when it does it. However, what if we just stop polluting the air and see what happens? It might lead to less air pollution! That in itself would be a good thing. It might stop Climate Change. That is important to young people.Baby Boomers don't really have to worry because we can simply turn up the air conditioner if Global Warming causes hot days in the summer. We can simply move to the Coast of Oregon if Hurricanes, tornadoes and wildfires make the rest of the country unlivable.
And if moving to the coast of Oregon isn't enough we can move to British Columbia or Alaska. Yes, people that live near the equator are in trouble but... really... so what? What if a Billion of them die? 

Automobiles are the main cause of air pollution. What If we simply stopped burning gasoline... The only downside would be that the owners of oil companies would lose money. Saudi Arabia would stop selling oil and the King would have to take a job as a Camel Herder. The owners of ExxonMobile, BP and Shell are spending a fortune to spread propaganda. They are fighting for their lives and lifestyles. Without oil profits they would be poor people... However, They could simply switch ownership of shares of stock in oil companies to ownership of wind and solar corporations. They could just call up their stockbroker on the phone and put in the sell order and a buy order. This trade would have to be done without a lot of publicity... If the newspapers knew that Rex Tillerson was selling his stake in ExxonMobile that would trigger panic selling and a lower sale price.

I believe that the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few or the rich. 

Great Book: "The Wizard and the Prophet" by Charles C. Mann A plan for surviving Global Warming and the Population Bomb.

No matter what Trump and the Climate Change Deniers believe, we are headed for some rough times ahead. By the year 2050 it's predicted that there will be 10 billion people alive... how will we feed them all? OR will we control the population by mass starvation? It's also possible to reduce population by endless war... and/or genetically designed diseases... bio-weapons... Hurricanes and wildfires... However, we ought to create a future for ourselves and our children that does not involve creating I dystopian nightmare world. Ya-Think?

This book studies two main plans for preventing disaster... The Wizards believe that we can invent solutions to our problems and The Prophets believe that by changing our lifestyle/behavior we can save our lives. No doubt we need to do both...

Some simple things we can do to prevent eco-disaster. Use Less Electricity [removing the need for coal fired power plants]... Have fewer children [removing the need for over farming the limited land]... and Drive our cars less [ burning less oil and gas that creates air pollution]...

The Wizard and the Prophet: Two Remarkable Scientists and Their Dueling Visions to Shape Tomorrow's World. An incisive portrait of the two little-known twentieth-century scientists, Norman Borlaug and William Vogt, whose diametrically opposed views shaped our ideas about the environment, laying the groundwork for how people in the twenty-first century will choose to live in tomorrow's world.

Norman Borlaug: Agricultural Scientist that invented wheat that produced vastly more food per acre. The Green Revolution.

William Vogt was an ecologist interested in population control and author of "Road to Survival"
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Vogt
According to Charles C. Mann, "Vogt...laid out the basic ideas for the modern environmental movement. In particular, what is called 'apocalyptic environmentalism'—the belief that unless humankind drastically reduces consumption and limits population, it will ravage global ecosystems.
