they can't do it
I don't believe the federal government can make a serious dent in the climate change problem. They are in bed with to many contributing sectors. We need to stop waiting on the government to do something and just start doing it ourselves. Obama and McCain will say anything to get the prize at this point.On Obama says will move immediately on international climate pact posted 1 year, 9 months ago 7 Responses

a large peice
How come not one question regarding the building industry and it's use of energy and materials was ask to any candidate? Buildings account for 45% of the energy use in america. 40 to 50 % of the stuff we put in land fills is construction waste. I would say the candidates that can come up with a greener building code could win over a lot of people.

Golf
I bet John Makkey likes to play golf too. I find the stores to be elitist and over the top. As a green builder and energy consultant I can't beleive the amount of arrogant waste in both the WF and regular grociery stores. If we really make a difference lets start building more smaller stores so we can walk to them. Remember walking?

It seems everytime I hear a celeb talking about global warming or energy efficieny they go right to recycling or solar panels.On Mike D of the Beastie Boys drops science on green tours, politics, and Live Earth posted 2 years, 4 months ago 3 Responses

could we talk about serious concervation over how we are going to get the next batch of power. The government could give tax credits to people who get home energy assesments. Grass roots bitch.
