For and Against the New Energy Bill

Last Thursday, Democracy Now sponsored an interesting debate on the new energy “and climate” bill. The debate was between Phil Radford of Greenpeace USA and Joseph Romm of the Center for American Progress’s blog ClimateProgress.org. The bill itself is not a climate bill just because it might have a slightly good effect on climate change if all goes well. It’s also not strictly a cap and trade bill either, because it puts a price on carbon and will return money to consumers (that’s good). The bill makes so many allowances for many polluters (what they call “small” polluters) that make up “only” about 30% of the USA’s greenhouse gas emissions. It also doesn’t mandate that we actually do anything that will get us to 80% reductions in greenhouse gas emissions by 2050, but it seems to think that’s a nice goal to shoot for anyway. You can read the transcript of the debate below after the break.
Setting an impossible goal is nothing new, but it’s unrealistic. It’s like a person saying their goal is to write a great novel, then doing nothing but scribbling sentences on Post-It Notes, then reaffirming constantly and everywhere that their goal is to write a great novel and this will lead to it. No it won’t. You can’t write a great novel by writing thoughts on Post-It Notes, and you can’t get to 80% emissions reductions by including an increase in coal and oil and natural gas use in your so-called “climate” bill while emphasizing creating jobs and increasing manufacturing. It’s nonsensical. It could only work if we could immediately reforest every parking lot and overpass in America, somehow stop rainforest cutting tomorrow, and take every energy conservation measure possible immediately, and that won’t happen. There is no political will in the United States to do what is seriously necessary to stop climate change. A real and realistic climate bill would focus on renewable, non polluting non-fossil fuels exclusively, or, set the goal date for a 100 years in the future maybe, not 40 years.
Anyway, most people in Washington know this and just play along and call it a “climate bill” to shut up the big environmentalists and the scientists, because it’s all a big game anyway. The announcement of the American Power Act was politics, and it was completely corporate. (The entire thing will be on Climate Files soon).
There are a few notes of optimism on this bill and subject from Bill McKibben. McKibben recently wrote a strange one-page advertisement/open letter to readers of The Nation. He defended himself from an attack by someone he would not name, who ‘accused’ him of supporting the American Power Act and saying we should reject the bill and push for something else that would actually work. McKibben says [...]
Açaí, a Global "Super Fruit", Is Regular Dinner Meal in Brazil
From the NYTimes:
Virtually unknown outside of the Amazon two decades ago, and not exported from Brazil — the major producer — until 2000, açaí berries have become famous around the world, riding the wave of the antioxidant craze and rain-forest chic.
Just a few years ago, farmers had trouble getting rid of the açaí that grows.
Diego Lopes, a 21-year-old açaí processor in Brazil, says he has açaí with lunch and dinner every day. “Fifteen years ago, it was like beans for us,” he said. “Now, it’s more expensive than beans."
“Think of it as a cheeseburger,” Mr. Lopes said, explaining to an American reporter. “You can’t have a meal there without a cheeseburger, right?”
The velvety texture of the thicker varieties is wonderful, but the taste is more — how to put this? — earthy. O.K., it tastes like dirt. Making matters worse, the manioc flour that’s often mixed in to thicken it has the consistency of sand.

Relaxing at Cape Canaveral’s Jetty Park Beach
Most people coming to Cocoa Beach don’t even know about Jetty Park at Cape Canaveral (Port Canaveral). They head straight for the Cocoa Beach pier on Meade Avenue instead. Fishing and surfing are great at the jetty and the park has a great beach. Don’t overlook it.

Hi Everyone Today we went to Hoover Dam Kids liked it a lot. We went down 500 feet into the dam and went into the generator room on the Nevada side and we went into the diversion pipe line cave that houses the huge pipe. We had enough water flowing under us they said it would fill a olympic size swimming pool in one minute. You could feel the rumbling under your feet pretty powerful. We then

Bloody Knees
It seems that my internal clock has no regard for the state I am in when I go to sleep. A few evenings ago my uncle Eddie took me and my cousin Chris to my second cousins' I'm not good with family terminology. They're basically my mom's and my uncle's cousins to get his van fixed. I knew we were going to see my cousins but what I was unaware of was the copious amounts of alcohol that was going

Vancouver Island
After an awesome time in Whistler it was time to spend a few days visiting Andy's Dad's friends on Vancouver Island. First stop Randy and Noy in North Saanich. The ferry ride from Tswasswan on the mainland to Swartz Bay on the island cost us 13 and was a pretty cool ride. We enjoyed the lovely scenery and views of the islands as we chilled out on the top deck of the ferry. It was a little wi
