Just read today that Barack Obama gave Shell Oil the OK to drill for oil in the Arctic.

The idea is, not much going on down there and vast reserves of oil and natural gas.

How can this be a good thing?

How can our government be so out of touch with the natural world?

How can they not know the planet is connected?

Shell has not shown itself to be responsible http://www.nytimes.com/2013/03/15/business/global/interior-dept-warns-shell-on-arctic-drilling.html

Nepal had another earthquake. Drilling, fracking, earthquakes. Related? What do you think?

But lets just talk about footballs...

More investment in alternative energy sources, solar, wind, waves all make sense and ought to be supported more.

I agree with Corey, which is the govt can help. Such drilling has been there. Not sure if statistically it's so bad..?

I'm with you a thousand percent Corey.
How do we do that? Of course, we can vote which is always a good choice, but what else?

To add to it (sorry) utilities are pushing back against solar customers in about 30 states.
I know what happens there affects here and what happens here affects there. I think that if all the energy companies and solutions worked together instead of against one another for a piece of the pie, they could all come out winners along with Earth.
