If Al Gore and Global Warming is Wrong….So What! We need to get off oil anyway!

I for one, believe that the earth is warming. I have seen the pictures of Glacier National Park and Killamenjaro and know that the disappearence of so many glaciers and snow fields can’t be a good thing! Rivers arise in the snow capped mountains, and we need the rivers for life! It is that simple. When the scientists show me that the snow pack in all the globe’s mountain ranges has come back to the level of the 1950s, I will be much comforted. Until then…not so much.

Even if we do experience a cool down and the water we need starts flowing downhill where we need it … Big Oil is a ghastly problem for the US. The oil from unfriendly and downright hostile countries is causing terrible problems for us as a nation. Better that we wean ourselves off Middle East oil and develop our solar, wind, natural gas and geo thermal, waste (manure) gasses ect….All we need is the political will to create and implement these programs. Forget Nuclear tho…just look at Hanford and see how fast we have not solved the waste issues.

So who cares about whether Al is right or wrong….we need to get away from Petroleum as our source of power. My next blog will be on Coal! Cheers!
