Clean Energy is the only choice
 

I'll keep my remarks short because I know that there are plenty of comments to go around. Fossil fuels are still dominant throughout most of the world, including America. But these fuel source are finite. That's the bottom line. They're limited. To continue to invest and build a structure of life upon a system with an impending end date doesn't make fiscal sense. There are limitations to alternative forms of energy. Solar and wind are two industries that are just now getting their footing in the market. That seems like all the more reason to invest in them. They don't have an expiration date. It's the way of the future. Fossil fuel jobs no longer make sense. They hurt the very people who work in them. And the jobs are going away as mechanization takes over. Help invest in a system that can transition those hard-working Americans with jobs that don't harm them or have expiration dates.
