Guest guest Posted May 2, 2007 Report Share Posted May 2, 2007 a government-sponsore-d scam. Why am I not surprised? Once again, how all of this is approached is very important and should not be rushed into [Dave:] Most of us feel pretty powerless when it’s whole countries and big corp’s that are spewing mountains of stuff – but there are many things we can do. One of the things most of us don’t talk about is that fact that we’re still driving big gas-guzzlers to and from work. I can’t afford a Prius, but I can bicycle. But yeah, you’re right – that carbon-trading game is nothing but the backroom boys at it again.

Guest guest Posted May 2, 2007 Report Share Posted May 2, 2007 If this topic is a no-no for the group, I'm sorry but wanted to reply. It would be great if we could all ride bikes everywhere, but I have a family of 5 and that is just not possible...picturing a bike train;o) We bought a diesel so later when we can, we will switch it over to a bio-fuel. Global warming or whatever you want to call it, is a real and serious issue that needs to be taken into heard by all of America before it's too late. We are taking small steps in our family and hope to expand as we learn more. Loree in ID a government-sponsore-d scam. Why am I not surprised?

[Dave:] Of course not everyone can ride a bike, that wasn’t my point. My point was that although most of us are not in a position to influence climate change directly, there are many small things each of us can do to contribute to the solution. We don’t have to have a president with a brain in order to make our own decisions to save energy.
