- "Impacts of Green New Deal energy plans on grid stability, costs, jobs, health, and climate in 143 countries" (Jacobson, Delucchi, Cameron, et al) Global warming, air pollution, and energy insecurity are three of the greatest problems facing humanity. To address these problems, we develop Green New Deal energy roadmaps for 143 countries.

No other perspective matters, however disenfranchised some may feel. For, ignoring that perspective, they will fight Something they cannot beat. Remember, Nature Bats Last.
