Use Fuel Fossils

More From Barack Obama

The issue of climate change is one that we ignore at our own peril. there may still be disputes about exactly how much we're contributing to the warming of the earth's atmosphere and how much is naturally occurring, but what we can be scientifically certain of is that our continued use of fossil fuels is pushing us to a point of no return. and unless we free ourselves from a dependence on these fossil fuels and chart a new course on energy in this country, we are condemning future generations to global catastrophe.
Country Ignorance Issues
If we want energy security, then we have to reduce our appetite for fossil fuels. there's no other way. other issues may crowd the headlines, but this is our fundamental challenge. big challenges require bold action and leadership. to get the united states off fossil fuels in this uneasy national climate of terrorism and conflict in the persian gulf, we must treat the issue with the urgence and persistance it deserves. the measure of our success will be the condition on which we leave the world for the next generation.
Issues Challenges Way
The true cost of the pollution that is being dumped into the atmosphere and manifests itself in our sick children dealing with asthma or older folks dealing with heart and lung disease from the pollutions created by the burning of these fossil fuels, may not be reflected in the prices of fossil fuels, but that does not mean we aren't paying a high price for them.
Children Heart Mean
All scientists who've looked at it know we have to phase away from burning fossil fuels. that means we've got to put a lot of effort into alternate energy technologies, but we're still subsidizing fossil fuels and not subsidizing most of the alternatives. it's not going to be an easy transition.
Mean Technology Effort
Solar and wind are now cheaper in many places than some fossil fuels and within the next two years, three, four, five years at the most. what the exponential curve does isn't going to go away. it is totally over for fossil fuels and nuclear. nuclear's actually gone out.
Going Away Fossil Fuel
We need an energy revolution by breaking our dependence on fossil fuels, polluting fuels... i am very, very confident our small state will lead this. we will be noticed by the country and the world.

Is there any other industry [than the press] in this country which seeks to presume so completely to give the customer what he does not want?

The immigrant must not be allowed to drift or to be put at the mercy of the exploiter. our object is not to imitate one of the older racial types, but to maintain a new american type and then to secure loyalty to this type. we cannot secure such loyalty unless we make this a country where men shall feel that they have justice and also where they shall feel that they are required to perform the duties imposed upon them.
