Talking Big
THE GLASGOW climate change conference produced much eloquent rhetoric and lofty promises, but little of substance. Keeping the promises will require sustained determination by billions of people. All of the goals promised at Glosgow are cehievable, but will require the sustainded effort of billions of people, to even get the process of reversing climated change started, let alone successfully complete it, and to do so, the promises made at Glasow will not only have to be accomplished, but exceeded. A massive worldwode solar energy development proect is absolutely imperative, because solar anergy is unlimited, quite inherently valuable valuable, and absolutely free. You couldn't ask for a better energy source than the sun. Massive solar energy development, reforestation, abandonment of fossil fuels, and the removal of carbon from the atmosphere will all be necessary, and all are within our currentcapabilities, we have the technology. But we must staart now, and start fast. the world leaders who gthered together at Glasgow care more about their political power, personal wealth, and personal reputation than they do about us or the Earth. they cannot be counted on to back up their pretty speeches with concrete action, as the Great Greta Thunberg pointed out. They will have to be pressured into doing so by popular public pressure. We the masses must motivate, mobilize, and initiate the necesary action to eliminate human made global warming. Above else, the world must stop using fossil fuels, immediately and completely. Great Thunberg must lead the world's children back intothe streets, as she has done before, to demand climate change action, now. the rest of us must join them. Instead of taking your kid to soccer practice, take her to a climate change reversal rally, and enjoy it with her. This calls for an "all of the above" strategy. Incessantly email your Senators and REpresentatives, demanding action. Campaign and vote for green party candidates, or at least vote for Democrats, to get the climate chand deniers out of office, for good. Millions and billionaires heavily invested in the fossil fuel industry must divest now, and reinvest in solar energy and other sustainable forms of energy. And of course, the parades, the beautiful parades. Everybody loves a parade, right? Let the climate change marches and rallies and parades begin! May the Sierra Club and the Proud Boyz and the local Pentecostal church and Green Peace and hundreds of other esteemed organizations take their "Stop climate change now!" banners proudly into the streets, and march. All MAGA members welcome! Mass protests helped scecure voting rights for women, helped support the Civil Rights smovement for African-Americans, helped end teh Viet Nam War, and could very well help kick start real worldwide inter-governmental action to reverse carbon based global warming.
