Gas Relief

Thanks for someone in Washington, D.C. starting the process to get more fuel efficient cars. Thirty years ago Congress passed laws and then took them back. Bravo to you, President Obama. I'd still like to read the entire executive order. When Congress bogs down in a swamp of mirey fighting, what else can you do than take action? Congress needs to look over what you signed and affirm or improve your order. Adam was given stewardship of the earth's resources. We have not done a very good job. However, increasing emissions may cause health problems in urban areas. That is not good. President Truman said back in @ 1951 that we should make the choice of going solar. We did not listen to that President. He did not sign an executive order. And the peoples of the world are competing over a supply of oil. We think there is a lot of oil, but it is not an endless supply. Maybe if we find oil on some distant planet, we'll be traveling through space to fill oil tanker spaceships to deliver oil back to earth. Sounds ridiculous? No more than thinking there is an endless source of a non-renewable energy. A couple of decades ago, China said they had chosen to go solar as they industralized their country. Didn't happen! World, wake up! We are a few billion humans sharing one planet. It is our only home for now.
