Napping with the devils.
What is it about my willingness to become a messenger of sorts for the manipulations of various entities, like Sierra Club? Why am I willing to be a messenger with eyes open?
I see active messaging about the climate change becoming more mainstream every day. People are beginning to see that global warming is not a myth. This is because of evidence as presented by media advertising and as felt on the skin in summer and winter. We feel the need to "do something."
I see an active tug of war between Coal, Nuclear and Wind energy companies. I see the nuclear industry tweaking politicians while some people are opposing coal (for very good reasons) and supporting alternative energy sources (at least those alternative energy sources as deemed good by Sierra Club).
Here is your current President at one time a relative unknown from IL; A state that has more nuclear power plants than any other state in the nation. A President who is pro-nuclear. A President who appointed Steven Chu as Secretary of Energy. Here comes nuclear to save the day. Too bad about that pesky nuclear waste issue but there is the reprocessing option. And of course nuclear is so . . . safe?
Connect the dots.
Remember the GNEP meeting held in Joliet December, 2009? And that moratorium on building new nuclear plants in IL?
Yet I still haven't explained why I'm willing to nap with the devils. How about that.
