If we want military spending, we should just invest in recreating Tesla's death ray and then put it on anything like A1.

What? Fossil fuels are a pretty amazing solution. They produce a lot of energy from little volume, fuels like gasoline burn relatively clean compared to other fuels like coal, natural gas burns completely cleanly producing 0 pollution, and they're abundant in volume. Granted we can't rely on them forever, but we're not going to die from using them like your post seems to imply.

We could die from using them, for example they are loving up the environment. I mean, going the way things are, the whole ecosystem could forget itself over between we even run out of fossil fuels. Which we will, but not in our lifetime, of course.

Well, Tesla was kind of a crazy guy who had a Pidgeon special interest, so maybe not. Anyways, we don't need something that can kill more people, we got that. We need to spend less on the military, not more.

Well.. I don't see much communism around.. just a few places..

I assume you are joking.

Greenhouse gasses are trapping warmth from the sun inside our atmosphere and heating up the planet. Plankton can't survive that and they support 40% of the earths population.

Yeah, they are loving up the environment, but not nearly as much as the green party would want you to believe.

Those are big, I mean loving big jumps. And along with each of those is a mass extinction. 2 degrees worldwide is a loving big change.

Cuba, China, North Korea. Thats all I can think of.

They are big jumps, which proves that the earths normal fluctuations are loving huge. The "natural" thing for the earth to do is fluctuate in temperature.

Laos and Vietnam, too, I think.

Animals can't evolve fast enough for that much climate change.

I think you misunderstood.

It also would be a whole lot of money to fund.

This was in response to me complaining about how Ronald Reagan killed alternative energy. He says that it would cost a lot of money to fund alt energy, which is true. And I said that we had this money, (in the Reagan years) but it was wasted "fighting communism"

In the Reagan years you had the USSR and Cuba was a bigger deal as well.

here's the graph i've always seen (not exact one obv, just the shape)

[!Trinick]

But it wasn't wasted, because there isn't much communism around.

Those are CO2 levels, not temperature levels.

Vietnam has allowed more private ownership of farms, some free market reforms. I'd say they are more socialist. I have no idea about laos.

Oh, I see what you're saying. But fighting Communism was a waste of money, I say. Especially the Vietnam War, as well as Reagan's Cold War.

1) It still exists. I mean, if you look at it by countries it's not a big deal, but if you look at it by population, there you can see the spike.

2) Russia, it's a little bit Putin-y
