We Nah. Let’s not talk about any politicians. From both sides of the aisle, for many decades, they failed to do anything meaningful about the climate crisis.

Now we’re looking over the edge of the abyss. So, let’s not lose focus or waste time talking about Biden or Trump.

Politicians won’t help us. Nor will ultra wealthy businessmen or corporations. They don’t care.

We need to either force them to do what’s needed or go around them.

Let’s talk about the climate crisis—try to persuade people in power. For example, remind them that their climate abuse is also abusing their own children and destroying the lives of their grandchildren. That, if they reverse course, their offspring might suffer less and might NOT hate them.

Or try some other strategy to influence events. To make fossil fuels a risky and foolish investment—moving money to solar and other clean energy.

Expose “respectable” people as the amoral losers they actually are—and give them the opportunity to rescue their reputations by changing their behavior.

This applies to people in charge, people who determine how energy is produced.

Once it’s produced, most consumers will use it. If it’s fossil fuel and clean energy isn’t offered—which is pretty much where we are now, people wil use that.

But if it’s electricity created by solar or whatever, they’ll happily use that.

Man, I’m so tired of hearing about politicians. They’re not worth our breath, they’re a distraction and we must keep our eyes focused on the health of our planet.

Wait! You like golden doodles? Me, too! Let’s focus on golden doodles! :-)
