Greens worry Obama will drop their cause

There is no real change in Obama’s choices for cabinet positions. He “formally named the rest of his team today: physics Nobel laureate Dr. Steven Chu as his Energy Secretary; Lisa Jackson as his Environmental Protection Agency Administrator; Nancy Sutley as his chair of the Council on Environmental Quality; and Carol Browner as assistant to the president for Energy and Climate Change, a new post.” Our solutions are found in the scriptures and are prophecy written on the United Nations' building: Isaiah 2:4: "They shall beat their swords into plowshares and their spears into pruning hooks and they shall learn war no more." If we turned from our employment lifestyle that causes stress, pollution, disease and high health care costs, global warming, wars, energy crisis, food crisis, reoccurring financial crises, crime and social security insufficiencies, we would not need a global warming policy and energy and climate change green jobs and expensive projects to employ the people. We would not need the president-elect's other promises of universal health care and social services like welfare and pre-kindergarten child care. The "New Deal" of past recessions caused the lifestyle that has created our world problems. There is no wisdom in getting deeply into debt to create more of a destructive and dangerous lifestyle. We do not need more science or a new post; we need understanding that we are going the wrong way and we need real change to a retirement lifestyle where we create a garden paradise with all our needs met in beauty and abundance in our neighborhood. We need true freedom and independence that is fair and available to all people. We need an environment that does not break down and need to be repaired with massive amounts of tax money. We need the change we expected, something that would make our lives easier. Barack Obama will not prosper us by borrowing billion of dollars as an economic stimulus packages for new forms of energy for climate protection or businesses. It would still take polluting energy to create them. We will still be working away from families, buying insurance for autos, health and homes, buying energy from domestic suppliers, dealing with daily stress of child care, college tuition, sons in military, and conflicts over abortion, marriages, and religion. There is no change in Barack Obama's energy and climate team.

I hope the "green team" gets busy working on making America energy independent! It would cost the equivalent of 60 cents per gallon to charge and drive an electric car. The elec to charge the car could be generated by wind or solar partially or in whole. If all gasoline cars, trucks, and suv’s instead had plug-in electric drivetrains, the amount of electricity needed to replace gasoline is about equal to the estimated wind energy potential of the state of North Dakota. Jeff Wilson author of The Manhattan Project of 2009 has a fascinating article on his Better Place Blog called "How Much Electricity Does It Take To Replace Gasoline?" you can read it at... http://planet.betterplace.com/profiles/blogs/how-much-electricity-does-it

Hay, FreeEnergy, show me an example of a electric powered truck that can transport a semi-trailer full of corn from a grain silo here in Minnesota to a store in Florida, WITHOUT the need of a third rail or overhead power cables. We all know that batteries won't power them as the energy required to move such heavy loads would required batteries that outweigh the load itself. (This is why it takes 250 pounds of batteries to move a 150 pound person). Until you can do that, (produce electric vehicles that can actually perform as well as current gas or diesel power ones) you're dream of an electric powered world is nothing more than a badly written episode of Star Trek, The Lost Generation.

Unless we can first solve the problem of death, environment or not, we will all die. So let's get busy, America!!!

Water vapor is a greenhouse gas.
