OOPS!!! CAN'T TALK ON PHONE AND TYPE/THINK AT SAME TIME. THAT QUESTION MAKES EVEN LESS SENSE. I GIVE UP.
HOW DO WE MAKE BELIEVERS OF NON-BELIEVERS THAT CLIMATE CHANGE PRESENTS A CLEAR AND PRESENT DANGER???

Elsbeth Shelton commented · June 09, 2009

Not sure how/why I got 'spammed', it is news to me!!! Anyway, I do believe that I worded my question incorrectly. It should read.....How do we convince those who believe Climate Change is a fairy tale and not a true threat???

I would prefer to travel by rail vs. highway any day!!! We must be smart about it as well though. As Dr. Kardoff stated, population and demand must be taken into consideration. The rail systems must be placed where they are not only accessable, but will be profitable as well. People must get a new 'mind-set' for train travel too. Electric cars traveling next to full trains would be a dream come true!!!
Why is Congress refusing to support Obama in his call to get 25% of our electricity from renewables?

Too many in the Senate and the House are still bound to special interest groups...i.e. BIG OIL. Campaign dollars line their pockets and alter brain function.
