Proposition 7: Requires all utilities, including government-owned utilities, to generate 20% of their power from renewable energy by 2010, a standard currently applicable only to private electrical corporations.

Some of our largest environmental problems have not been caused by who you might think. Often, environmentalists cite the Bush Administration or “capitalists” as causes for major environmental problems. Yet, the contributors to some of the largest environmental problems we face today are none other than environmentalists. They are environmentalists who jump on the band [...]

I think it’s ironic that anyone who is an environmentalist will purchase a DVD called “Who Killed the Electric Car?” This movie slams GM for playing a major part in killing the large inadequate technology of electric vehicles. Of course, this film is a Sony Pictures Classics Film, but they make no mention about the [...]

On Earth Day, I was able to get a brief moment with George Bush to Interview him about his new environmental plan. I’ll be airing it on my Radio Show tomorrow on BlogTalkRadio.com. Of course, the show is one hour long and the interview was only about 2 1/2 minutes, so I need to make [...]

Today, the Bush Administration announced their new plan to help protect the environment. Since all three Presidential candidates are addressing growing environmental concerns, George W. Bush made the following announcement:
The Democratical candidates all have their environmentalistic policies that they believe are best for America and our planet. Unfortunately, these plans are highly flawed and don’t [...]

I was startled when I read the news this evening about the supposed Earth Liberation Front (E.L.F.) burning of several million dollar homes in the Woodinville, WA. Why would anyone who supposedly supports a green movement burn a house?
It sounds like a little black sheep in the E.L.F. This got me to thinking… What is [...]

Sometimes chalked up as “hippie consumerism”, green products have not received as much mainstream coverage as some of these great innovations deserve. Nor have they been accepted as widely as there is a true market for green products. There is a laundry list of reasons that green products have been muddling along for the last [...]

Researchers at Wageningen University have determined that the excessive tapping of Boswellia trees was endangering the ability of the trees to produce this classic holiday scent. It’s clear what the problem is and what the solution should be. We need fewer Christians. I believe that in an effort to also help solve the diminishing lion [...]
