S.A. Reports Natural Gas (Instead of Coal) Use May Not Halt Global Warming

The idea that using natural gas instead of coal prevalently might slow or halt global warming is being attacked by some on valid scientific principles. It is better to go to entirely green technologies (or just stop using so much energy and insulate better) rather than use fossil fuels apparently.

In 1960 when I was a lad the U.S. population was only half what it is now (approximately). The people of tomorrow deserve to have a U.S.A. with just 160 million-its a better nation then, yet they can't, however it should be possible to just stabilize the population at the present levels with an end to illegal immigration perhaps.

A hburgeoning U.S. population is no good example to resource conservation. Even in Alaska one day there won't be room left to just build more roads to create jobs. The fisheries are declining here, the governor wants to dam the Susitna River and a giant mine for open pit copper is a possibility that may leach minerals and other toxic effluence into the Bristol Bay watershed. Even the inventor of the Gaia hypothesis believes global warming is going to happen to such an extent that the far noth will be about the only underst areas in the U.S.A. outside of a few small spots.

At some point intelligence should return to U.S. political leadership, yet its unlikely obviously. Voters have little choice about selecting candidates that don't support the new world order of economic concentration of wealth and population growth to accellerate consumption.
