  49. A few things: 1) How much CO2 did Nye release into the atmosphere with that silly Mentos trick? Not the greatest spokesman for emission reduction, there! 2) It's interesting how you brought up AOC's press release but left out the fact that 3/4 of it had NOTHING to do with climate change. What does Universal Health Care and guaranteed income for those "unwilling to work" have to do with greenhouse gas reduction? Most of those talking points seem to be inspired by "The Communist Manifesto" instead of "An Inconvenient Truth." 3) Incremental change is the approach that will work best without causing widespread economic disruption. 4) While I believe that we in the USA can and should be making greater efforts to increase renewable generation, how do we get the most egregious polluters (China and India) to join the party? 5) AOC acts like this is the first time anyone's attempted to address these issues when, in actuality, smarter people than her have developed workable solutions over the last several decades. The "new" technology that she says we need to develop ALREADY EXISTS. She and her co-sponsors completely ignore the efforts of the USGBC and their LEED standards, the EPA's Brownfields program, The CNU and its charter, APTA's efforts to expand public transportation, local efforts such as NYC's "Greening Gotham," Oregon's LUTRAQ, and many other programs that have been underway since she was in elementary school. If she was serious about the climate change issue then, instead of trying to legislate socialism/communism, she'd be making real efforts to further extend and broaden the solar tax credit and incentivize the aforementioned programs with additional funding and/or tax credits. Instead, she is so deeply engaged in shameless self-promotion on late-night talk shows that she has neither the time nor desire to grasp the nuance of these issues. Due to her endless string of gaffes and failure to discern the concerns of the average citizen, she has become so widely disliked that she's doing far more harm to than good for the environmental cause that she pretends to espouse. I've been studying these issues since the 1990s and can say, with utter certainty, that she is absolutely clueless about REAL solutions. She's clearly up to something sinister but, if you want to believe that a mediocre waitress who snuck into Congress through the back door knows more about this topic than people who've devoted half their lives to addressing the problem, you go right ahead.
