Great report about Climate change issues

[Foxfyre]

I am 86 but hope to live too for another 20 years so long as I don't end up the way Carter ended up for several last years he lived. I find my experience in life is of value. I recall FDR for instance. I recall Herbert Hoover and even Charles Lindbergh. I also have accumulated a large library in my interest in books.

Good for you. Your mind is still sharp, curious, working, wondering and that is a tremendous blessing. You've forgotten more history than most of these younger whipper snappers ever knew. And have the blessing of observation and experience that they lack.

The young who are not indoctrinated and/or brainwashed are also blessed with not having the constraints of history/experience/conditioning of having lived it all and such so their brains are more able to imagine new and wonderful concepts that us older folk have sometimes forgotten how to do. That is why George Lucas chose older teenagers and twenty somethings to do the innovation and programming for the quirky facets of his Star Wars trilogy. They could imagine and come up with components that older people probably would not have been able to do. And the results were brilliant.

Pity too many of the young these days, however, because they are indoctrinated and programmed in fixed ways of thinking that has destroyed or suppressed most of their creative and critical thinking ability. That's why they buy into this control the climate nonsense that governments in the Americas and in Europe are trying to force on us. They have lost their instincts that would allow them to see how flawed that concept most likely is.

When I spent decades as a loyal Democrat, I then accepted their fake claims. Because my family was all Democrats. Grandpa Avants pretty well indoctrinated our family at the time that Democrats got us close to communism. My last name is not Avants either since it was Moms maiden last name. Myself and my remaining younger sister is all that exists now of our part of that family tree. I have a cousin in Oregon I know of. Some of Grandads relatives I located still living in TX where Grandpa was born. My kids really did not know the Avants side. Not from knowing any of them. Grandma avants is buried here in Idaho about 2 miles from my house here in Idaho. She died and i never went there to visit her. I last saw her in Oakland, CA when she lived there.
My kids might be some Democrats based on me being one when they were young. I live with my stepson who is a devoted Republican as I am.

When I became old enough to vote I was living in West Texas. They automatially stamped my registration Democrat as nobody but nobody in that part of the world was Republican at that time. But that is when Democrats were as conservative as Republicans if a big more big government oriented. And Democrats and Republicans could be friends and share traditional American values together. I left the Democrat Party when it was no longer that way.

I don't consider myself a Republican either though I certainly share most Republican values and almost none the Democrats push these days. I am registered Republican so I can vote in my state's primary elections. If the GOP continues to embrace the MAGA vision, I could be converted.

Back when I was a Democrat there is no way the Democrat Party would have bought into the climate change insanity that it now pushes.

Right you are. When I left the Democrats in 1980 per my vote for Reagan, this was not even a topic at that time. Climate was just a scientific event. We pilots are forced to study Weather and that becomes climate when measured for 30 years by rule. If they saw how cold it is now in the USA, they never would bring up warming.

Ruining our economies and wasting trillions on less reliable energy while China and India
more than make up for our reduced CO2 emissions will put an even larger burden on our children.

We need more reliable, cheap energy, not more unreliable, expensive energy.
How many new nuclear power plants should we build, to save our offspring?

Toddler, give me an example of how green initiatives have ruined our economy

Did our economy benefit from the green energy waste in the Inflation Reduction Act?

Again, provide an example of a green energy intuitive which has destroyed our economy.

Yes, have you not been paying attention.
