Thom Hartmann: Why Faster Melting Glaciers Should Worry You

[DemandsRedPill]

6. Another 'well thought out response'

"I don't think anyone said that we can drop fossil fuels today and be ok"

Well at least you got that correct
I did not even imply this

Hartman acting on the basis of being paid??
Reread what I wrote and then take some time to think about the one issue I did bring up

The man said (and as someone who is deeply involved in all aspects of renewable energy and have even had a face to face with one of the guys on the video who is from Stanford), I hear this far too often, "we don't need fossil fuels".

This is a verbatim quote

Had he stated that "we don't need fossil fuels if we can accept a radical change in our lifestyles" then the whole argument is moot.

Yet as I clearly spelled out in my post there is virtually no questioning at any level of the all too often accepted , absurd notion , that without major efforts toward lifestyle changes on a grand scale worldwide, along with any acknowledgment that there is not now nor will there ever (on this planet at least) be a replacement of fossil fuels having equal or even marginally equivalent energy densities and properties to what is currently available from fossil fuels renewables 'will not fill the bill'

Our entire current reality depends almost exclusively on these properties.
That includes our entire financial system since there really is no such thing as money without energy in some form

OH!
BTW have you ever had a sit down face to face with Mr Hartman?

I have and I like the guy but even he will acknowledge that we all see things through far too tinted rose colored glasses

That's when he is speaking one on one and not for general consumption.

So 'there is where I'm at'

How about you?
