Jobs, Or The Earth? Which Do You Choose?


It’s no secret that fossil fuel consumption, and CO2 spewing fuels in general are harming our environment. And it’s also no secret that we are still recovering from the toughest times since the Great Depression.
So, even if it means that our planet’s human-induced global climate change problem is accelerated by the burning of fossil fuels, do you value “jobs” over the Earth?
Also, I think it’s hilarious how different fuel industries *market* themselves:
Coal ——- It’s about jobs! We have LOTS of it, and it’s cleaner now than it was in the past!
Oil ——– It’s about jobs! We need to get off of foreign oil! And it’s cleaner than coal!
Natural Gas —— Cleaner than coal or oil!
etc. etc. (no matter how bad something is, it’s “good” because it’s “better” than something else)
