(68,644 posts)What I wrote about ignorance above applies to so many aspects of the energy picture that I can't even begin to explain.
To be sure, Obama has been the best on energy since Carter, no way to refute that, but the black man in the white house is facing incredible opposition.
I shouldn't have to list his accomplishments so I'll just say that natgas is growing, economies are dependent upon it, he can't unilaterally shut down fracking, but I wish someone would begin to prohibit energy exports and that more people would support high speed rail, further funding support for solar and wind, electric vehicles, and conservation.
I probably shouldn't even bother trying to discuss the topic with people who don't that hydrogen isn't an energy source, or who think that energy mix is a snack food.
I stand by my comment, people are ignorant, I'm glad that you're onto the bottom line, as it were.
Water is the next oil-- I've been saying that for at least 10 years...
dammit.
