I never said that,, I'm all for clean air, and water, I worked in those
industries for years.

Let's look at where we are and where we were.

They yelled about human waste getting into the water supply,, we stopped
that

They yelled about chemicals getting into the water from industry, we
stopped that

They yelled about lead in the air from gasoline,, we stopped that

They yelled about acid rain caused by burning, coal,, now that has been
stopped

All these things have been great, and we even need to get better at
controlling them

But then

They yelled about Freon getting into the air causing a hole in the Ozone
layer, we stopped that,, but it made no difference to the Ozone layer

Now they are yelling about CO2 levels,, something that can not be
stopped with combustion of carbon based fuels, they know this, they know
this is one that can't be filtered out.

So let's just put it back where it came from,, give nature a shot in the
arm to do it quickly,, no big deal. Don't know if it would slow natural
Global warming, but what the heck, let's do it anyway, it's cheap and easy.

What gets me,, there is a solution to all our energy needs, yet these
same people (the Global warming fear mongers) yell they don't want us
to do it. That's nuclear energy , with it we can break water down to
hydrogen, to use in fuel cells or even combustion engines, it produces
no CO2 when burned,, just H2O

But they claim,, what about all the nuclear waste,, easy solution, we
have places in the desert where we set off under ground nuclear bombs,
these made 1 mile in dia. caverns (each), all over a mile deep, you
could not fill them with our nuclear waste of 50,000 years of dumping it
there. The "volume" (physical size) of nuclear waste is "very" small
each year from a power plant

Nuclear power could totally fill all our energy needs, even our mobile
needs, it is a never ending power supply (thanks to breeder reactors),
fuel cost is nothing compared to fossil fuel cost to make electricity .

I can see fuel cell powered bass boats, for tournaments, Hydrogen fueled
300 Hp Mercs :-) Heck I would just like to see some good lithium
battery packs and electric boats.

I personally would love a "good" electric car

political, that's all it is


Americans just have it too good, they want us to cut our way of life
down (reduce our energy use)
