High Energy prices may be the only way to save our childrens future.

 Five dollar gasoline has been a firebrand for everyone right now, with the right pointing to how inept Biden is and how his policies are causing high gas prices, they are not. 

The left is freaking out too because the poor "cannot afford to live" some truth to this, although their own inability to try and better their own life and make sound financial decisions is the real culprit, but that is another blog. 

Overall the United States is the worlds highest Carbon Emitter with a close tie to china. This is incredibly alarming considering the US has 330 million people while China has 1.4 Billion, a substantial population difference. For those at this point who are wondering, yes it's real, if you've ever opened a chemistry book it is undeniably listed as a cause for the planet warming. The concensus with scientists is nearly unmatched, which as Astrophysicist Neil Degrasse Tyson says "Almost never happens as Scientists argue over everything."

The United States also wastes 50 percent of the worlds food, production and distribution of food contributes to to Co2 emissions with the less obvious being the production of food itself. Moreover the US unmatched in the world beef consumption also contributes to warming via cow farts and belches, yea my children would laugh right now too, why are you? The US food portions are also grossly larger than anyplace else in thew world where. we also lead in the consumption of garbage food which has at times been proven to have the nutritional value of cardboard. 

Moving on here is the key, Democrats, like good capitalists they are, keep trying to push ways to keep our economy afloat and keep their current presidency and slim margin in the Congress, I get that. However point in fact it requires even more carbon and nature degradation to "Save us" all to keep the corporations happy. 

This is absurd, if we simply regulated and taxed energy, especially oil we would lose the dramatic ups and downs of the oil market, which gives us greater stability and incentivize people to go "Green" this means less consumption and less expulsion of greenhouse gases and a healthier planet. Now you can argue about what those green solutions are, that's fine, however point in fact over consumption in every aspect of American life is the major culprit here. If we were to simply slow our consumption that means less factory  output, less driving, more dependency on mass transit, less building mega homes, less food consumption ect. 

Without it, we go extinct as a species within the next couple of hundred years. This is an emergency and it's time we acted like it.
