Reply #72: Nothing to worry about [View All]

[quaker bill]

Greens should not worry, after all the science of restoration ecology and environmental remediation has come a long way forward in the last 20 years.

My experience is that with alot of money and fair amount of time we can mostly put things back together.

Yes I know, to you purists, restored environments are never quite the same. Interestingly, you are right. We can get maybe 70 and on a really good day perhaps 80 percent of the biodiversity back. (given of course that the species haven't been locally extirpated)

But all that being as it may, there surely is no need to vote for a candidate who might actually get elected and slow the habitat destruction process down. Right?

Would any of the democrat candidates stop the process, no. Would any potential Green elected president put a stop to it (pipe dream, but nonetheless), no.

Would the right democrat, who might have a better chance of working with democrat congressmen be more effective? Likely so.

Are any of the candidates running the perfect choice on all relevant issues? no.

Would all of them do better by our causes than GWB? You bet!
