Palin on the Environment
This gives good review of Palin's environmental policy. It sounds reasonable -- if we were purposely terraforming.

Article here.

"Pollutants affect all of us. But in Alaska they are taking their toll. The birth defect rate in the state is twice the US national average; and on North Slope, the area that produces most of Alaska's oil, it's nearly four times the national average."

I need some 'splaining.

1) If the pollutant problem is causing health damage, why would doing something about this issue require votes, campaigns or other nonsense? We do not hold votes to decide if we are going to stop a forest fire?

2) If everything in the universe has to be childproofed and every decision always has to answer to "what about the children?", then how does "quadruple birth defect rate" get listed in the okey-dokey column? Especially by the "family values voters"?

1) Damn, that's a great question. We did need votes to set up fire fight responses, and to help fund them. But that was long, long ago and a fantastic way to consider the response we need for the environment.
