@Frugal1,
Quote:Overpopulating in your own country with your own people is one thing, but allowing your problem to freely spill into another country is tantamount to an invasion of another country.
As it relates to 'carbon footprint', the problem doesn't go away even if they stay where they are.
So, to all the alarmists out there, again, what are ya gonna do?
If you are serious your belief in global warming, logically we should be talking about how to deal with it, not the impossible task of stopping it (unless of course we adopt a policy of genocide).
I'll start.
First: Stop belly-aching about costal development. The most aggressive estimates of sea level rise put the problem at least 100 years away. Right away we should stop subsidizing costal development with federally subsidized flood insurance (why did we ever have it?). Then let the market decide when we abandon the 'old' waterfront with development. Nobody will care about those 100 year old buildings anyway, they would probably would have been torn down anyway.
Second: If you're serious about reducing CO2, lose your stupid aversion to nuclear power. Learn how to do it safely and economically instead. Stop your stupid 'not in my backyard' **** about nuclear waste. We spent over $10B on the safest possible nuclear waste storage site and then abandoned it because of NIMBY. And then left all the waste sitting around where it was in 'barrels' you stupid fucks!
Sorry, I got carried away. Stepping away from the soapbox now.
Any other ideas?
