And this yet another essential reason that the Democrats have to win across the board in November - continuing to pursue renewable energy. Australia is an important ally of ours - and most of our allies are working on renewable energy. And we know that the Republicans don't care and, as they have before, will abandon these plans and will only make things worse.

I wish I could talk to my Dad about all this - he was an industrial engineer and ran the power company here in northeastern New York - which was a challenge considering the weather we get here. He was big on hydro and accepted nuclear, but didn't trust solar - yet. However, he was on board with Jimmy Carter, actually started dressing a little like him with the vests and sweaters when the president was setting an example about turning your thermostat down.
