Telling the truth about climate change is good politics | Grist
No matter what derangements currently hold sway over American politics, eventually reality will out. The crazy weather will get worse, ice fields will melt, agriculture will suffer, food shortages will get more severe.
Climate change deniers: A path to power?
Why do we have an unsustainable, fossil fuel dependent energy policy? Why is the status quo subsidized here while China moves to world leadership in wind and solar power? Why is Amerca addicted to oil imports from unstable corners of the globe? What are the costs to the lungs of our children, to Gulf fishers, and to the Earth our children and grandchildren will inherit?
