   The O Team -energy and climate change It would seem that investing in renewable energy now, regardless of the economic situation will bring real change on the economy, the environment and the energy crisis.  Obama has said that this would be his number one priority.  That was before the economic collapse, but he should maintain that as his top priority.
    It's nice to work across the aisle and find consensus, but he should be firm in his resolve when it comes to the future of energy.  After reading The Lean Guide to Nuclear Energy, I don't know how anyone can be serious about investing heavily in that.  It would only siphon off money that should be invested in renewables.
    I am appalled at how uninformed and misinformed the public is on this important issue of energy.
   
   The less they know the more the tend to listen to calls of Drill Baby Drill, and assurances that nuclear power is a clean, safe, cheap and sustainable solution to the energy problem.
   
   I have started a new blog, an attempt to dispell some of the disinformation about energy and climate change.

   I'm not an energy expert or scientist and my site is not for techies but for the general public.  I hope it helps.

   Join Forces: Obama and his teamates..With all the hustle and bustle going on in the White House, can payday loans be of any help to level out the commotion in the Oval Office? Excitement spirals over President-elect Barack Obama's picks for Cabinet for the new administration. The chosen ones have been announced and critics are wondering how exactly he's going to manage such a strong group. Obama is "a believer in strong personalities and strong opinions," and he intends on getting the best. National security and economic policy teams will be led by a sturdy army. On his national security division, Obama will team Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, Defense Secretary Robert Gates, Vice President Joe Biden, retired four-star Marine Gen. Jim Jones as national security adviser and four-star Gen. David Petraeus as chief of U.S. Central Command. What makes this organization even more impressive are the members of the economic team: National Economic Council head Larry Summers, Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner and former Federal Reserve Chairman Paul Volcker as the lead of Obama's economic recovery advisory board. To add another strong personality into the brilliant governing mix is Rahm Emanuel who will serve as the White House Chief of Staff. Much like a payday loan that provides temporary relief during a momentary financial relapse, Obama is ready to attack the nation-wide troubles that pose a threat to our economy and livelihood in general.
