In 1942 all of America’s manufacturing concerns were converted to the war effort. A merry-go-round gun factory made gun mounts. A corset factory made grenade belts. A stove manufacturer produced lifeboats. A toy company made compasses. 1/2

That’s what we could do today. We could transition our economy specifically & including the fossil fuel industry into a warp speed effort to establish a green energy grid. What we did in World War II we can do today once people realize climate change is the same level threat. 2/2

Reducing global carbon emissions requires global cooperation among industrial nations. What is your plan for coordinating our national mobilization for clean energy with other major polluters?

Green Energy doesn't work. Today, FF are filling the void. MISO has 27GW of installed wind energy. SPP has 15GW+. These are not small interconnects. Both in the windiest area of the Continental US.

your infrastructure is crumbling and you don’t have the skilled labor to do it. Alternative energy is the least of your concerns. You shut down your borders. Kill the military industrial complex, deal with the civil war that breaks out b/c its coming & then address infrastructure

lol…yes it’s just that simple. Thankfully “climate change” isn’t remotely the same level threat - the alarmists have been dead wrong on all their predictions of catastrophe for the last 50 years, and will be dead wrong for the next 500 years.

100%! The trick is how to motivate people now as to the urgency of the situation. It appears that society has morphed in many ways to a "don't look up, everything, all the time, right now, for me" headspace. How do we unify the fragmentation for this and other core purposes?

It was about profits then and still is today. Capitalism and the profit motive is no solution to climate change. Did you see the report about the soon extinction of plankton that came out today? Biosphere collapse has begun.

YES! ... Use the high gas prices and Inflation to make a huge transition to Clean Energy!
