Again...WHY doesn't the govt. fill the Mojave desert here in Nevada and California with solar panels and wind turbines?
Because THEY don't believe it. If they really did, they would take action.

Think about it. When a dozen crazies with box cutters hijacked some airplanes 12 years ago...the govt. swung into action! They created the "Patriot Act" to give themselves more power and created "Homeland Security" and the TSA and have spent billions and billions of dollars.

Yet...when we are supposedly faced with global extinction? They do...nothing.

Money scam is what this screams to my cynical mind.

When the U.S. entered WW2 just think about how quickly and massively the U.S. govt. mobilized the country for war.

Now when they claim we are ALL going to die? It's business as usual. President isn't riding a bicycle. He's polluting BIG time with his convoy of SUV's, his private jet, his private helicopter.

Hell, he just left a carbon footprint bigger than all of us on GFY put together so he could take his family on vacation (at tax payer expense) to Africa.

That is NOT taking this "threat" very seriously now is it?

If the Pres. really believed it...he would DO something.
If Congress really believed...they would DO something.

Hell, Harry Reid is my Senator from Nevada. Mr. Democrat/Liberal himself. And that would be money coming into NV for his cronies...and he STILL does: nothing.
