Time to Clear the Air on Immigration
Blaming immigration for our environmental problems amounts to charging the batter who made the last out with losing the whole game.

I wasn’t nearly as enlightened on environmental issues as today’s college students seem to be.
E first wrote about global warming in 1996. With this latest focus on "losing winter," we’re bringing the issue even closer to home.
Sometimes we have to green suspect industries from the inside.
Throwing the cuffs on the fashion industry.
The notion that we might need nuclear energy to stave off global warming makes me want to laugh and cry at the same time. It is a self-fulfilling prophecy that began when Ronald Reagan took office in 1981 and promptly removed Jimmy Carter’s solar panels from the White House roof. It was not simply a symbolic act. Reagan also slashed alternative energy funding so deeply that it virtually put the solar industry out of business.
Children are our most vulnerable citizens, and they deserve our protection.
I cannot understand how anyone who has felt the sting of high gas prices, idled on crowded interstates and watched news reports about global warming, oil shortages and rising asthma levels can drive anything but a fuel-efficient, low-emission vehicle.
As the weather gets colder and many of us batten down for winter, it’s a great time to start drawing up plans for those improvements you’ve been contemplating. Go green and you can make an important individual contribution to the environment, help take a bite out of global warming, and save money over the long haul, too.
The "birth dearth" notion currently being peddled by neoconservative Ben Wattenberg, and gladly bought and re-sold by the media, is just another gnat in need of swatting by people of conscience.
