Climate Change, Environmental Equity and Liberal Democracy
CLIMATE CHANGE is an existential crisis for some. For others, there is a recognition that our earth cycles through different climate eras and our ability to change those cycles is limited.
Learn about various strategies of solar, wind, hydrogen, fusion, efuels, and others to ameliorate our stress on the environment living our comfortable and consumptive lifestyles which include cell phones, laptops, Amazon Prime, UberEats and social media.
Environmental equity promotes the interests of the poor. We will do whatever we can to help our environment provided it doesn't raise the cost of living for the poor to buy a home, groceries, gasoline, utilities, clothes, etc. as well as having decent jobs.
Do aggressive climate goals threaten to undermine the economic strength of rule of law nations such as the United States versus rule of man nations such as China, which does not abide by international agreements such as the World Trade Organization? China's leadership in electric vehicles is not meant to save the environment, but rather to burn high sulfur Chinese coal outside of population centers and run figurative extension cords into population centers to run their cars, buses and trucks all the while despoiling the earth's atmosphere.
