Common Sense on Global Warming!

Some want to continue doing what we've always done...only there are more of

us than before. Some want to challenge whether man adds to the global

warming problem. Well, man does burn a lot of fossil fuel. It is a fact

that we dump more emissions in the air, and by the sheer numbers of

combustion explosions going on down the interstates is pretty much an common

sense indication that we raise the temperature to some degree. The degree

we raise the temperatures is a fair question.

What if we do take measures to reduce those things we've being doing in mass

numbers that weren't being done before we dominated the earth? What if we

reduced the filth in the air? I live in Dallas, Texas; in the summer we see

the brown sky. My Dad died from an insufficiency of oxygen. A little more

clean air, he might have lived another decade.

How bad would it be to do those things if there was actually some unseen

effect that neutralized those things we've been doing. Someone, in another

post, mentioned the irrational left. How about the irrational right? The

rational right, of course, would understand supply and demand enough to

know, that for every gallon of oil we replace with a green source of energy,

there is a downward pressure on supply which causes a downward pressure on

oil prices. How bad would that be if we needed a little less oil?

Every generation has its superficial thinkers and its deeper visionaries.

The superficial minds see the immediate cost of a new technology where the

deeper minded see the prospect of energy technologies beyond our wildest

dreams. It wasn't the flat earth society that brought us the internet,

folks. Al Gore was there, decades before the superficial. The superficial

want to deny his contribution. That is just more irrational and uninformed

thinking. None of the pioneers of the internet ignore the part Al Gore

played...only the irrational shallow minded people that choose one delusion

after another. Many of them are still searching for weapons of mass

destruction. Some of them actually see WMD where there are none.

The rational green thinkers know we need to invest in new energy technology.

Capital investment is the process of withdrawing profits from consumption

and immediate gratification and converting them into capital, then invested

in research that could lead us into undreamed of discoveries. What's wrong

with that?

The old energy companies, the oil companies are deeply invested in

yesterday. Yes, they buy up new technologies, but they store them. They

say they save them for when needed.

They will only need them when THEY no longer have oil to sell at a premium

price. We need them right now.

I believe the rational approach is keep our mind open on global warming. We

should listen to Al Gore and consider as many of his suggestions as are

wise. He can have his HOV lane back!

So to those who hate America first, and Al Gore second, I ask them what are

some of Al Gore's energy suggestions. If they know none, then I know they

know very little and are not the people to listen to. If they are

knowledgeable and tell me some bad things Al Gore wants...and then admit to

some of the good things. We can find good things to agree on. If they are

just ignorant protesters slobbering mantra from talk radio, without any real

thoughts of their own, I can just ignore them as they should be ignored.

You must be an enviro-nazi and a tree-hugger who hates America.

NOBODY is going to take away my Ford Excursion with a 500CI engine and 8

MPG. It's my right under the Constitution.

Of course we add to global warming. The problem is - is global warming a

problem or is it what the Earth does anyway?

Its a stupid question.

It wouldn't be bad at all.

True, but they made it funny.

Al is always first in line when they're serving donuts.

The people who OWN that capital are doing that now.

They aren't being stored. They're here right now. You can toss some solar

on your roof right now and reduce your electricity by 15% and you can

install a tankless water heater and reduce your water consumption by 30%.

What's stopping you?

Careful with your sarcasm.. some might consider it your true feelings.

It only works if a lot of people do it.

Thank GOD they haven't asked you to help balance the budget!

Trust me on this, when I put solar on my garage roof to charge the batteries

to power the pool water heater THERE WAS NOT someone calculating how much

electricity I saved and immediately using that much more!

Trust me on this too, when I put in 3 tankless water heaters THERE WAS NOT

someone calculating how much water and electricity I saved and immediately

using that much more!

Here's my suggestion for you:

1) Stay out all night Saturday getting drunk.

2) Post on the Internet Sunday afternoon.

Pick ONE.

And a serious problem it is for American redneck hillbillies everywhere.
