<![CDATA[Grist - Comment Feed for The NAFTA super highway: Not the nationwide high-speed rail system one might have liked]]> Grist Comment Feed en Comment #1 by lifeisyoga http://www.grist.org/article/the-nafta-super-highway-not-the-nationwide-high-speed-rail-system-one-might/ Fri, 25 May 2007 04:53:25 -0700 http://www.grist.org/article/the-nafta-super-highway-not-the-nationwide-high-speed-rail-system-one-might/1 The NAFTA global warming superhighway

There hasn't been enough discussion of this environmental and social catastrophe in progress.  I could go for new windpowered electric rail lines, but can't see a huge commitment to new CO2-emitting infrastructure at this point in history.  

How can we expect to stop Middle East mayhem without jettisoning energy-intensive systems like this that make the war necessary?
