Struggle to Succeed

There some golden opportunities out there right now for anyone with enough motivation to improve themselves and the planet simultaneously. Its green energy.

Currently our none-so-well-motivated Congress (we thought the Democrats would be different) is talking about allowing the coal industry to produce and sell liquified coal fuel which, it seems, puts more greenhouse gas into the atmosphere than gasoline. Nobody seems to have the political courage to impose a fuel tax increase along with a gas-guzzling vehicle tax and spending the revenue immediately on public transportation improvements nationwide and more tax BREAKS for hybrid vehicles on a sliding mileage scale. Greater tax incentives for solar panels in the sun belt, wind farms in the wind belt, and other renewable methods.

So the moment is up to us to participate in a larger way. Each of us can help the planet. Go out and plant a tree, contribute money to saving forests and oceans, recycle paper, glass, aluminum, and plastic. Start a business installing solar panels. Invent a new way to produce clean fuel. Do something today that you didn't do yesterday. Then BLOG about it.
