TheVoiceOfJoyce We are denying man made climate changes at our peril. Last week never would have occurred and claimed as many lives in the EU and some here, if we used less fossil fuels. We’re emitting Carbon at 11-12% Globally and every dirty energy used costs lives and productivity. Our goal is to reduce Fossil Fuels and go renewables. The entire world is going renewable energy, while we’re stuck with Trump’s fossil fuels attachment? This is a non sustainable addiction! We create 2 jobs for every time we build solar or Wind power. Plus solar energy creates its own humid environment making it easier to grow crops. These sources of energy add water. They don’t destroy our water resources like coal, diesel or gas. Time to make money and cast off our oil addiction.
