#taxcarbon
Please on all that is holy please let's just #taxcarbon already:
'With distressing images of weather-related disasters saturating the news media, climate change no longer seems such a distant and abstract worry — except, perhaps, in Washington. In 2009, President Obama persuaded House Democrats, then in the majority, to pass a bill aimed at curbing greenhouse gas emissions. Facing a Republican filibuster in the Senate, however, the legislation died. And its prospects dimmed further when Republicans took control of the House in 2010. Mr. Obama has remained relatively silent on the issue since then.'
I have no patience for the fight about or against global climate change. I don't give a fuck where you fall on this 'debate'. Carbon is plain and simple pollution. You would not allow your neighbor to just dump trash into the street, but just because you can't feel, see or touch carbon directly doesn't mean it is any better or worse than the trash your neighbor throws into your yard. Tax that shit and stop it. Do it for the kids and the kids' kids. Now.
