TheVoiceOfJoyce The NashVillager’s problems reflect the woes of our Country. Opioid settlement money is finally trickling down to the States and communities most affected by the crisis and they’re fighting over the meager funds usage. Is it going to help addicts and the right mental health professionals? It’s a conundrum that’s fixable with oversight. Opioid addiction and overdoses destroy lives, it’s too bad some Billionaire isn’t investing their money in a cause that directly helps people in need. Nashville’s next problem discusses their rising dew point and unbearable heat. This phenomenon has been replicated all over America. Older New Yorkers stayed indoors, with air conditioning, to avoid the oppressive heat. America needs a Manhattan Project for fusion technology and energy. Instead, Trump wants to mine coal on Public Lands. Focus on your town and please focus on stopping Trump Republicans from returning to office. We have the tools to create a better World, vote for Legislators, who care about people first! We can’t survive with opioids or weather catastrophes. These are both man made phenomena.

TheVoiceOfJoyce France’s Firecloud occurs in Australia and Canada. This Firecloud produces fire and not thunderstorms and is new to France. They’re desperately trying to save the Bordeau region and stop these massive fire storms. The heat promulgates more heat. The World’s #1 priority is Climate mitigation, otherwise the damage caused by climate extremes is insurmountable. Who will replace all our infrastructure? Farmland? Etc. people first! We need more alternative fuels and a Manhattan Project for fusion energy. Trump’s folly of going back to coal, brings us closer to oblivion. The World is a closed system, what happens in France and Spain affects all of us. Unfortunately, Wars also contribute to Climate crisis and the World needs peace to concentrate on the preservation of our Planet.

TheVoiceOfJoyce I haven’t read about Trump’s grievances last night. The events recounted took place yesterday. The Senate is not likely going to confirm Clayton or Blanche, both Trump toadies, who refuse to answer simple questions about the 2020 election, lest they appear disloyal to Trump. Meanwhile, Trump’s demands continue and worse, his coziness with the oil industry is producing wildfires in Canada & Minnesota causing unhealthy air pollution into NYC. In Texas, the river rose 25 ft causing mass flooding. We have climate emergency’s and budget cuts are making us unable to mitigate climate catastrophes. Meanwhile, Trump is concerned about a new heliport and putting his face on a commemorative coin? What happens in America, is of no concern for Trump. He’s pursuing vanity projects?

There’s a lot happening: Senate confirmation hearings for National Intelligence and Attorney General? Trump’s vanity projects and Pollution out of control from the Canadian Border to NYC. With budget cuts, do we have the resources to combat climate crisis?

TheVoiceOfJoyce The wondrous world of AI, not so fast. They haven’t made a profit yet. So far they’re only using fossil fuels for Data Centers, causing pollution and using and depleting our water resources. The Tech companies are shedding 10,000 of jobs. So what’s in it for the workers and the consumer? And what about developing the rest of our Society? Infrastructure, railroads, connectivity, green energy, 4 th generation nuclear power? Health care, education, science and technology? We need a well rounded society and an educated civics minded populace. So far, AI is smoke and mirrors. It’s all potential. We don’t need grandiose ideas, we need a plan and an understanding of benefits before saying yes!

We’re skeptical of AI use. So far there is a lot of hype , 1000’s of job losses, pollution and water shortages and no benefits, though the stocks are highly valued. We need a plan for our future, not statements?

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.

TheVoiceOfJoyce There’s good reason to be skeptical of Data Centers popping up in your neighborhood. Nashville has a method for debating the necessity of constructing them in residential neighborhoods. There’s good reasons not to want Data Centers and the Financial Times counts the reasons :1. They frequently build without permits. 2. They go off grid and don’t share electricity with the Public. 3. They’re powered 99.9% of the time, per Musk. 4. They’re huge polluters, increasing our carbon emissions. They use gas & diesel fuels . 5. They’re using up our water resources. AI is not viable at this time and 800+ centers are planned. That’s a lot of dirty power for dubious unregulated technology.
