Carl Sagan's 1985 Senate Hearing comments on Climate Change...it's about time ALL Americans

accepted the reality of this evolving danger to the environment that the Human species has evolved in...and joined others around the world in committing to needed solutions.

Note his reference to the planet Venus around the 12:15 mark...while an extreme example...even a mere fraction of such a Green House Effect everyone should agree would be truly catastrophic...mostly for our children...grandchildren and all others to follow...let's not fail to do our part.

And yet you're still okay with Bernie Sanders using a private jet. Why is that?

I’m more concerned with DJT taking his 747 on so many golf outings…

Bernie could take that private jet all over the country and still not equal the fuel consumption of one Trump round of golf.

FYI…after doing some Googling, I learned that AF1 consumes 66,000 gallons of jet fuel on a round trip between D.C. and Palm Beach ((never mind the other aircraft involved in moving the President’s cars and entourage around)… while a Cessna Citation private jet (like my sister used to fly) would need only 2,000 gallons to go from NYC to San Francisco and back.

Do the math on those single trips…then look up how many golf trips DJT has taken so far this term.

That was fun…thanks for asking…

You informed us that "ALL Americans" need to be committed to dealing with this existential threat. You need to answer why you think this doesn't apply to Bernie and his private jet.

Regardless, the answer is always that we need more government control by bureaucrat elitists.
