Outpost can be Rodgers. Chili can be Lane Taylor. I feel like there's definitely someone who could do Jamaal Williams but I can't remember who. There's a couple of Rashan Gary candidates. Actuall, Skibrett needs to be Tramon. Which of the Kumerow sycophants hates Trevor Davis? superbowl babyyy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm up for changing it, just curious why you thought about Allison. Are you not the leader of the anti-Allison bandwagon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope, I'm not anti anyone really, just a very mild/boring person in that regard. Must be someone else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leader Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 Arwa Damon/CNN: In the oceans, degrading plastic... binds with the man-made chemical pollutants. All that toxicity ends up in the digestive systems of marine life and travels up the food chain all the way to our dinner plates /////////////////// I think it an absolute sin (not in the religious sense) what we're doing (and have been doing) to our seas - all of which has a cyclical element to it because it comes back to us in differing ways. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wind and solar are not good options, as neither provide consistent output. I agree that reliance on coal is not a good way to produce electricity. We need to use nuclear power more. Nuclear power has had a lot of negative propaganda put against it, but it is safer and more efficient than other methods. I guess I don't understand hydroelectric power. I know the water turns the turbine and creates a lot of electricity. Why haven't we made a man-made loop with a series of hydro dams feeding into each other, just constantly producing power. It doesn't even have to be across a river. There is a lot of empty land where such a facility could be constructed and not block natural waterways. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nuclear is definitely the way to go if green energy is the desire. The negative spin has actually made coal preferable to some people which is just insane at this point. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only positive attribute of coal is its cheap and it's only preferable to those cashing in on its economic value and stupid people. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
15412 Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 "We" have been doing to our seas? China, Russia, Korea, Japan etc etc make us look like Greenpeace. Love that floating nuclear station Russia is in the process of adding to the Arctic. Now that's progress! Nat gas is the only way to go in the near future, and long term foreseeable future. Burns cleaner than oil (which burns cleaner than the cleanest coal) and with giant reserves here in the USA and world wide. Anything else is a fantasy...

Well, being aggressively ignorant is glorified in some segments of the population so that isn't surprising unfortunately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
