1. I honestly don't understand it - and they're giving the go ahead

to more nuclear facilities I think, too.

Aren't there European countries that rely primarily on solar/wind power? Why can't we learn from them?

2. I didn't realize there was such a large aquifer under the midwest

You would think all the inhabitants would be super vigilant about their water supply.

3. I always used to assume that "they" did what was in our

best interests, made sure everything was safe, wouldn't do something if it could be harmful. Now I know better but I'm thinking most people feel as I used to. You have to be vigilant to be aware, and most people don't have the time or inclination. :(

4. We should rename it the Koch pipeline...

5. It's time to BAN all new oil projects, and begin phasing out all current projects

We will never kick our dependence on polluting fossil fuels if we keep enabling the problem.
