tar sands |
I am a big believer that global warming is something humans must try and avert by storing carbon. And the only way to do that right now is to conserve forests, grow trees, and to produce less carbon. And some more controversial untested methods. Even if we can't prove scientifically that this must be done, there is so much circumstantial evidence that the planet is dying from carbon, that we really have no choice. So when we are told that the tar sands in Canada will release carbon like no other energy source, I am proud and encouraged to see thousands of environmentalists protesting and getting arrested to draw attention to the problem. At least for me keeping optimistic about the climate and the future of the planet can be difficult at timse.

Not the same statement as getting arrested in front of the white house, but at least I did something
You said your administration would be one that believed in science. Scientists say the 'tar sands' project is 'game over' for the clinate. Will you stop it?
