Antarctica has lost more ice in four years than the Arctic has in 34 years

Not sure if climate change is real. I'm gonna wait to see if food keeps showing up at my local grocery store.

Sounds like we should double down on nuclear and solve this problem in less than 12 years.

If we paid the state more it would be fixed.

The climate in my neighborhood wouldn’t hurt a fly.

I am sure you will be the first to stop driving a vehicle to help with your carbon footprint right?

The father of climate change hysteria lives here

I hear Gwad already cut off his dick to reduce rape so this makes sense.

More water to fill the toilet/drinking fountains....

What a retarded article.


The Arctic Circle has relativity little land mass compared to the Antarctic. So.... therefore there is exponentially more ice in Antarctica.

So when you have a quatrillion ice cubes stacked up and it gets above freezing, you are gonna lose a lot more ice cubes than the area that has a few billion ice cubes stacked up.

It’s not my first choice but if that’s what it takes.

It is unless you've got a new battery tech patent pending.

How do you plan to make nuclear price competitive with renewables and natural gas? There's a reason why you never see nukes in an IRP, it's prohibitively expensive with current technology. If you're a nuke advocate then you should also be pushing hard for a carbon price...which I've never seen you do.

I support poor people who need gas to get to work

Climate change is elitist

I'm glad you entered the discussion. You and I both know renewables don't work for night time baseload without some other form of battery than we currently have.

I advocate subsidies for nukes, reducing red tape from the EPA, and using imminent domain around NIMBY-ism (Yuka Mountain). Those would all reduce costs.

Natural Gas has it's own issues but getting India and China off of coal and onto Natural Gas would probably reduce emissions by more than anything the US could do. Other than what we are currently doing(exporting) I'm not sure what we can do to encourage that though.

Have you considered paying a tax to the state of Oregon? If not, then you aren’t serious about fixing the problem.

Why are so many Democrats trying to fight this? I thought they were for change?
