Comments on: 60-hour work weeks, all in the name of climate change http://blogs.reuters.com/summits/2009/09/10/60-hour-weeks-all-in-the-name-of-climate-change/ Exclusive outtakes from industry leaders Sat, 25 May 2013 03:51:01 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.4.2 By: Eve http://blogs.reuters.com/summits/2009/09/10/60-hour-weeks-all-in-the-name-of-climate-change/comment-page-1/#comment-1100 Eve Sun, 13 Sep 2009 02:07:23 +0000 http://blogs.reuters.com/summits/?p=3580#comment-1100 First, the planet's climate has always changed and will always change. Next, do politicians really think the best thing to do is freeze people to death? By raising the price of electricity that is what they are doing. Every stopped construction of a new nuclear plant or new coal facility means less electricity for heat. I do not have air and I do not care if people have to pay more for electricity for that but when I have to read about a mother using her electic stove for heat for her and her two children..and therby burning down her apartment, shame on you global warmists. Everyone who believes they are harming the planet by using fossil fuels should stop using them. First, the planet’s climate has always changed and will always change.

I guess my worry would be in performing all this work, and I am sure everyone else shares this concern: , will all this work we are doing move us forward or are we just preaching to the choir of those attendees. What is the message that is getting out to the public and what can they implement today in either their businesses or personal life that will contribute to slowdown or reversal of climate change.
