All of the financial impacts of rising CO2 content in the atmosphere, such as hurricanes, water shortages, rising water levels, increasing pestilence and famine, desertification of today's fertile plains. Need I go on?

I know you don't believe in it, but there it is. I've always believe that we should focus on what we all agree on, which is that we don't want Russia, Venezuela and the Middle East to gain wealth at our expense so they can prop up their dictatorship and train their terrorists. So if we curtail our oil usage, we can stop them in their tracks. That also means we'll focus on renewable energy and electric cars, which will position our country favorably in a new multi-trillion dollar industry, which will bring great wealth to our country. Finally, the icing on the cake is that a shift to renewable energy will have a positive impact on our environment.

There has never been a no-brainer as big as this in my lifetime.
