Thank you to everyone fighting for climate action in Virginia. The forces of inaction are strong and well funded, but their position is completely untenable, certainly in the long run but hopefully in the short-to-medium run as well. That is, if we want to have a habitable planet to live on. Sadly, a lot of fossil fuel folks and their political allies care more about profit and greed than about current and future generations. Also note that moving to clean energy is a "win-win-win," in that it's good for the environment AND for the economy AND for electricity consumers (aka, all of us). So don't buy the false environment/economy tradeoff meme; it's utter bull****, just like most other words you hear coming out of the fossil fuel folks' mouths. |
