Obama has the world's highest carbon footprint and energy consumption


 Sahit Muja: New York
Sahit Muja: Obama has the world's highest carbon footprint and energy consumption.

President Obama consumes gas, oil and energy more than any leader, king or person on the planet earth. Now his campaign slogan need to read:  "Just do as I say, don't do as I do".
Lets be fair to President Obama and give him credit for what he does about energy and carbon foot print which has nothing to do with what he lectures us on.

Flying Air Force one plus entire security detail plus transports for gas guzzling limos across the country to take in a fund-raising, vacations, play golf and basketball games.
Flying air force one plus security detail plus staffers to campaign.  President Obama has the biggest gas guzzling fleet in the world's history, more vacations than any President in the history.
Michele Obama has to travel separately plus her security detail plus limos for vacations.
President Obama himself lecturing about higher gas prices helping to reduce consumption, that is consumption for everybody else except him.

President Obama, the regulation king who never met a business restricting law he did not like, muses about why energy prices are high.
My short list: The inflation, over regulation, devaluation of the dollar, EPA going beyond it's mandate, manipulation of oil prices, denying or red typing the permitting process for oil, natural gas and coal.
Government botches everything it touches. Yet  President Obama and his worshipers think they can manage energy better than the free market and manage the entire auto and health care industries better....etc, delusional. They are runaway ideologues, and they have to be stopped.

Who is preventing exploration and production oil, natural gas and coal on all federal lands?
Who closed all offshore areas of the U.S. to oil exploration? Who refuses to consider an opening of oil exploration in Anwr ?. Who reduced oil production on federal lands by 30 percent?
Who refuses  American oil exploration and oil production in the Gulf ?. Who took U.S. taxpayer dollars in the billions of dollars and funded Brazil and Mexican oil exploration and oil production while denying Americans access?.  
Who allowed the EPA to force the closure of 200+ coal-fired power generation plants, without any viable replacements?

Who allowed  an Energy Secretary who boasts about wanting gas prices like Europe who doesn't drive or own a car?.
Who stopped the XL Keystone pipeline project, along with the 20,000 direct construction jobs and the 80,000 ancillary jobs that would have been created in support of the construction, just to buy the eco  votes?.
Who is constantly claiming credit for increased oil production, which is actually ONLY on private and state lands and is the result of the actions of President George W. Bush while he was in office?.

The answer is President Obama.
Lets be fair to President Obama and give him credit for what he does about energy

The planning of the energy generation around one or two resources is a short-sighted vision.This is the classic sickness of the politicians who only think in four years with a bargain mentality.
As a nation we have to project investments in all the resources available oil, natural gas, coal, nuclear and also developing advanced technologies to improve the capture and use of solar and wind energies in long terms.

About the nuclear-power, I know that there are a lot of controversies, but I don’t like to see in the near future all our nuclear plants as “cemeteries” of concrete and machines without use.
Of course, the nuclear plants require more strict controls and politicians and administrators who don’t cheat when choose contractors and approve budgets.

 We can use a nuclear and coal power plants to crack water into 100% pure hydrogen and oxygen gasses. Hydrogen is an excellent energy carrier. You can use it to power something electrically via fuel cell or you can just burn it like a normal combustion engine. The byproduct of burning hydrogen gas is 100% pure water. Hydrogen is no more dangerous than gasoline in any given situation.
We can make our own fuel source from seawater.
