Solution to global warming
We need to do something significant about global warming now. Direct 10% of the U.S. defense budget to global warming initiatives. It will create jobs, reduce environmental disasters, improve national security, and provide leadership for the rest of the world to follow.
Why is this important?
Recent flooding in New York City is just the tip of the iceberg. We need to do something about global warming now. If we were to spend $80 billion of the $800 billion U.S. defense budget on global warming imitativeness (tidal, wind, solar energy, conservation, new technologies) we would stimulate the economy, reduce disaster costs (NYC is $50 billion alone), and reduce national security threats. In addition, if the rest of the world followed our example, it would be a more peaceful place to live.
