Stop the RGGI madness
 

You will receive many impassioned comments regarding this issue from folks who believe that climate change is the biggest threat to the world. Climate madness has become their religion, despite erroneous prophets like Al Gore proclaiming that the end is near. 
The earth is a self-healing system, given enough time. If oceans rise, move inland. We can no more have a significant effect on climate as we can stop earthquakes or volcanic eruptions. Yes, conservation is good. We need more carbon dioxide eating plant life and fewer strip mines going after lithium. What we do not need is government mandating massive changes to how developed countries live, based on flawed assumptions.

Get us out of RGGI and stop demonizing coal, oil, gas and nuclear power!
