The thing to say about todays' show is simply.. Get The Book!! Climate Solutions, a Citizens Guide, What woks, What doesn't and Why" by Peter Barnes, published by Chelsea Green Press.
It's a fantastic, easy to read book about the solutions to climate change.... find answers to cap and trade, and carbon taxes, and all the jargon we hear on the news.. but hear it in a way that makes sense, including the pros and cons and better alternatives.
So, there... just read it!
Some suggestions from Peter today...
1. He recommended we look at climate solutions as a policy problem and we need to put pressure on our elected officials to change the policies around carbon emissions. In California write these two senators and tell them to pass "zero emissions" by 2050 Boxer and Feinstein...
2. We can join 1sky.org to support their work and join their email network.
3. Also join wecansolveit.org, Al Gores climate change site.
4. Check out Peters site, Cap and Dividend.org that outlines ways to stop CO2 emissions using market-based solutions, without reducing household incomes.
We need to reduce Co2 emissions ASAP.. can we do it?
