Do you only watch 30 seconds of a movie and claim you know the ending? How can you argue with the exponential increase in CO2 since the beginning of the Industrial Revolution? Do yo really believe the carbon released from fossil fuels has completely no impact on global climate? There is a reason the earth was a lot hotter before all of the plants started growing. Not only that, but my post made no mention of climate change at all. I was merely commenting on the fact that people in consumer cultures almost lay down their lives for some greenbacks that in the grand scheme of things are worthless anyway.

We have to get away from the mindset that money is the most important thing we have. “Committee ranking member James Inhofe (R-Okla.) countered, 'You can be sure of this: once the American public realizes what this legislation will do to their wallets, they will resoundingly reject it.'”

It will move our energy supply out of our country, where they care less about the environment. I love our world, and want to supervise pollution control. By moving the energy out of country, we hurt everyone, especially this world. I hope it doesn't pass. It will move our energy supply out of our country, where they care less about the environment.
