You may not agree with everything the Sierra Club says or does, but at least you gotta admire this testimony today from Athan Manuel Director, Lands Protection Program, Sierra Club, to Ed Markey’s Committee on House Select Energy Independence and Global Warming:
When considering the future of oil, it helps to look at the present. More than ever before, Americans are paying the price a record-breaking $4 a gallon for our dependence on fossil fuels. More than 30 years after the first oil shock of the early 1970’s, America continues to be dependent on fossil fuels like oil, natural gas and coal.
When contemplating that past, as a Greek-American I am reminded of a favorite phrase from Homer - Homer Simpson: “Stupidity got us into the mess, and stupidity will get us out.”
Bravo! Quoting Homer Simpson just might be the inspiration this Congress needs to improve its approval ratings.
