I read your book today, an Inconvenient Truth. Great book, I wish everyone would read it, but the ones who really need to read it probably won’t. I guess that’s inconvenient truth #1.Be sure to stop by and join the conversation. The last time I looked, Robert's readers had left 60 comments and counting.
When I was in college I wrote a lot of editorials. Imagine that! Heheh. But — by far — the most unpopular one I wrote was when I advocated raising gas taxes by several dollars to encourage Americans to buy smaller cars and to encourage the car industry to come out with smaller and more fuel efficient cars.
That taught me the depth of the problem. We aren’t willing to face the hard truths.
Hey, Al, even you aren’t willing to propose one of the best answers: nuclear power.
