For all generations

About Me

Air Pollution. Global Warming. Energy. Ecology.

We can and will address these problems. I have pledged to do everything in my power so the next generation will have cleaner burning and more reliable fuel sources. Part of the solution is solar power, wind power and biomass power. And part is energy conservation and efficiency.

Together we can turn things around.

Keith Olbermann... True Patriot

My Interests

"Unless we stop dumping 70 million tons of global warming pollution into the atmosphere every 24 hours, which we are doing right now ... the continued acceleration of this pollution would destroy the future of human civilization,"
---- Al Gore, former U.S. Vice President

"If you don't like the news, go out and make some of your own."
---- Tagline used by Wes "Scoop" Nisker during is radio news programs.

Save money. Save energy. Stop global warming. Use compact fluourescent light bulbs...
