A solid set of solutions are set forth, centering on the need for a mandatory cap and reduction of emissions, which will spur action on all levels for innovative ways to cup emissions. We already know energy saving measures that will also save money: it just takes some incentive-creating legislation like a cap and trade system to achieve it. Kister has lived entirely with solar and wind energy, knowing first hand how well they work, and how economical they are.
With positive feedback loops kicking in, temperature rises and the severe weather that causes promises to be horrific in coming decades, and we must do everything we can to stop the cause of the problem: greenhouse gas emissions.
The presentation also promotes the permanent protection of the coastal
plain of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge as wilderness, which is now quite
possible with the outcome of the 2008 electionsJ
