One of the people with whom I often work made an 1800% ROI on a company producing solar panels. You can make a lot of green with green.

They "often made an 1800% ROI"--and people aren't flooding into solar panel production? What the heck is this company? Enron?

I can also make a lot of money at the race track or with a lottery ticket. Don't confuse luck with good decision making.

You’re wrong about this: It is not contradictory to conservative ideology to state that the earth is a finite planet with limited resources.

Conservatives know that there is no such thing as a ‘natural resource’ and that free marketplaces and human minds will solve problems. That’s our route.

Are you aware of the disastrous results of mega-projects nearly without exception?

More importantly is that the estimated potential rise in temperature spans a broad range. For the vast majority of that range ‘global warming’ doesn’t cause catastrophic harm. What’s the problem?
