War Initiative
Should the Government take initiative in creating a eco friendly environment?
I know it also depends on individual effort, but compared to what the Govt can do what an individual does is like a drop in the ocean.
I think if there is a will, from the politicians there is certainly a way out of this eco - disaster.
For Example:
1. Govt can start by converting all its vehicles (Govt owned) to
a less polluting LNG (Liquified Natural Gas) fuel?
2. Convert all public transport vehicles (city buses) to a LNG.
3. Open new Nuclear plants (France relies more than 90% on nuclear power to supply all its enery needs!!!)
4. Allow businnesses and all other companies to encourage (with perks, tax deductions) for employees to
use public transport)
5. Build more Wind power towers all across the country
One answer can be money, where can the Govt get so much money, answer is instead of throwing the money down the drain in wars a fraction of it can
solve lot of the environmental issues in this country.
Please offer your comments and answers.
The government not only should, but needs to take the initiative to reduce our greenhouse gas emissions. The most important thing is to put a price on carbon emissions. They must also require much better fuel efficiency for new cars. Even China requires much higher fuel efficiency than the US! Fortunately the US appears to be taking a step in that direction:

Converting government and public transport vehicles to alternative fuel sources is also an important step, and they should follow NYC's lead, where they're planning to convert all taxis to hybrids by 2012. LNG is a good alternative, but it's also a limited resource, so we need to use other technologies such as hybrid and electric for government vehicles.
Another positive step would be to increase subsidies to individuals buying hybrids or other alternative fuel cars, rather than decreasing the subsides as the formerly Republican-controlled Congress did.
Building more wind farms, particularly in the midwest, is another important step. Also solar farms, particularly in areas with sunny weather for most of the year. Stop building coal burning power plants and don't let liquid coal become subsidized.
