Not just nuts. Self-righteous and nuts.
That's not fair to the (few) residents who don't support the program. I think that the supporters should stop breathing for a couple of days instead.
I’m tired of playing fair. Put it to a referendum, if the majority wants a 7% reduction, break it down by precinct and rolling blackout the precincts that voted for it to achieve the 7%. Children need to learn consequences and Lib’s are children.
Xcel should let them sit in the dark and freeze their asses off in the winter. I’m sure their minds will change.
And - knock me over with a feather - here's ACORN too!
This report makes it clear that supporting half-measures, like voluntary or intensity-based emissions reductions, is like throwing a drowning man a tiny piece of a life jacket,” said Micah Walker Parkin of the Alliance for Affordable Energy...The fourteen organizations supporting Friday’s rally understand that solutions do exist...The rally is being sponsored by ACORN,
I don’t care if they want to live in caves and wear sandals made from hemp and bark...but don’t dare they try to make me live like that as well.
There's an excellent place to start saving emissions. Cut power and gas to these 14 organisations. Let them eat windmills.
Exactly!
Let them take one for the team, lead by example.
They didn't need to know them like that, just a general overview of them. In fact, they didn't even read them as they were only a general discussion chapter in her history book.
I ran into the same thing here in Florida. I was floored!
I spoke to some teachers about this and I was told they were to busy to really teach with all the behavioral problems and standardized tests they have to teach.
They teach “concepts”. Whatever the hell that is.
The question becomes ...how do we get back into the classroom? This is one prong of the barbecue fork. We've got to take back our schools and universities
or
We need to establish our own. And no I am not talking about just the home-school type establishment. I am talking about at all the levels of education.
With the slender towers of the Valmont Coal Plant as a backdrop, the group plans to deliver an open letter to the city with a simple message: Failure to meet Kyoto is not an option. Boulder does not own its own utility like many larger cities, including San Francisco and Seattle, so city leaders rarely have much control over where the electricity provided to Boulder comes from. Instead, the city has a franchise agreement with Xcel Energy.Guess again, "NGO". Thanks george76.
that communist encampment should be shipped to China and make sure ll the professors and students are included!
“Ground burst or air burst? “
I vote for air burst, it will kill more!
Maybe Boulder could burn some of that symbolic coal pile they're protesting around; I'm sure symbolic coal has much less carbon than real coal.
Boulderites are mostly just a big bunch of smug elitists.
The City is wall-to-wall SUVs along with a bunch of Priuses mixed in. They've walled themselves in with open-space, so that housing is unattainable for all but the wealthiest few. They've rejected almost all useful retail, boasting when they allowed a single big-box store (Home Depot), so they've driven their retail sales tax base into surrounding communities.
To solve their horrific downtown traffic and parking problem, they ripped up 100’s of parking places and replaced them with bike lanes, which of course almost no one uses. So now you see all those SUVs constantly circling and circling everywhere waiting for someone to vacate one of the few precious remaining spots.
They built their new library in the Boulder Creek flood plain. Not that it has very many actual books in it, as they spend most of their money there on everything but books.
They never plow their damn streets during the winter like most other Colorado communities, and the sheeple don't seem to mind enough to do anything about it. (Denver Mayor Bill McNichols lost re-election specifically for failure of the City of Denver to properly plow their streets after a major blizzard in 1982.)
So yeah, I think symbolic coal is the way to go for these folks.
