Green Ideals 2

Venus is a perfect example. It was proven in the 90s that there was a hole in the ozone layer. Remember all of that stuff with aresol cans? Even the Republicans admitted that much to be true. Then all of the sudden we get 8 years of Bush and Republican rule and people just sort of forget. They undid peoples memory, if you will. Then all of the oil companies and such find scientists who are legit and pay them to fudge the data. Then, fact turns into hoax. There's plenty of proof out there like ice cores and what I mentioned before, but all they had to do is put the smallest bit of doubt in peoples head. They act like it is something that you can choose to believe in like god or Santa Clause. That is the way with a lot of things these day. Like evolution, "I don't believe in it." like you have a choice, as if you have a choice to believe that the holocaust happened or the Earth revolves around the Sun. The worse part is, even when you present the facts and evidence to back up the facts, they come at you with their own set of "facts" and the issue is never solved. How do you deal with people like that? They just stick their fingers in their ear and go, "la, la , la, I can't hear you."
 
Nuclear energy was a stepping stone away from fossil fuels. But it is by no means a destination. The plants are very expensive to operate and there is the problem with nuclear waste. The strip mining that takes place to excavate coal is horrendous to the environment. This should not be looked at as something to do until it is exhausted. It needs to end as soon as feasibly possible. We need more solar farms.
