we need to keep the Earth's
remaining coal and oil
in the ground.
I'm terrified
of climate change.
I'm terrified for the future
of the people of Earth
if the EPA
has the power to 
cap carbon
without congress having to do anything
that power
should not be taken away from the EPA
if the EPA is unwilling or unable
then congress should lead
and
pass a law
to cap carbon.
There is not time to wait
for the economy to recover.
Our carbon based economy
is unsustainable
as it is.
Time is very quickly running out.
We may have less than six years left
to begin to reduce carbon output
to avoid the loss of all hope
of avoiding catastrophe.
This is the only issue that matters. It's
not health care; it's not Wall street bailouts
not gay marriage
if there's anything
if there's any issue worth
a politician spending political capital
on, it's this issue. There will be no recovery
from a climate catastrophe
It will cripple the welfare
of the people of Earth for a hundred thousand
years
if we're able to survive at all
I tend to be attracted to libertarian ideas.
I think the government should stay out of
the way the free market as much as possible
but there's some things that government is
good for
cash for clunkers and
mileage standards are not the solution.
We need to tax and cap carbon and
let the free market determine
which alternative energy sources are most
efficient
government should stay out of the way
new wind energy
new nuclear power plants
if capping carbon
does serious harm
to the short term economy
it still needs to be done
the consequences of climate catastrophe
will be much much worse
if democrats don't
do what's required, I may as well
vote for the other guy
but that's just me and
climate scientists and
people of the future
so I'm sure they won't
let me hurt their
chances of
re election by
doing something. thank you.
