At this point I’m reserving all judgement until I can closely examine the financials.
Often these types of extravagant projects involve the same type of “forward looking” growth estimates that almost never pan out after every middle man takes their slice off the top.
I really hope we don’t become too enamored with new political alternatives that our critical eye gets lazy.

- aaronbrethorst 8y ago"new political alternatives" New political alternatives to the status quo of a 1.5º celsius temperature increase by 2030 and an overall increase of 3º celsius, resulting in catastrophic climate change? Or am I misunderstanding you?
- dev_dull 8y agoLook here: catastrophic global warming predictions. Don’t look here: junior incoming legislature proposes laws that mandate the government employ everyone at taxpayer expense. Don’t look here: middlemen are historically extremely good at extracting money from every government dollar. Don’t look here: there’s zero proof or evidence that any of this legislation will make any material impact on global warming. Or am I misunderstanding you?
- Latteland 8y agoI think you are arguing that reducing carbon fuels usage, reducing carbon added to the atmosphere won't make any impact on slowing climate change. That is wrong I believe. Or are you arguing something different, that we can't correlate laws to reduce carbon use with actual carbon usage. Both ideas seem wrong to me.
