I'd love to switch to clean energy in some form. I feel like its the least I can do, and the direction people are moving anyway.

I don't want to spend half my vacation $ on some where to sleep. I want a clean room, clean bathroom and comfortable bed. Coffee pot, microwave and fridge. I don't live in the room when on vacation.

No, not soon. Gas car still fairly new, and solar panels too expensive. Plus, I have a new, energy-efficient house with hydronic heat floors, so house does pretty well on energy efficiency.

Richard Dillard

I would really like to switch to solar power but it is still to expensive.

Joyce Hamlin-cutler

If I lived in a city or town, I would for commuting.

Too expensive

Steven Huillet

They cost too much up front, not dependable and the expense to replace the batteries is outrageous! NO THANKS!

If climate change is proven to affect our food supply and quality of life, then it's butting in to our unalienable right to life, liberty, and property. So, in short, yes.

No brainer, to me. but then I've always been environmentally conscious.

If cigarette smoke is so deadly, then pollutants from everything else is probably more dangerous. Lets keep our whole environment CLEAN.

I suffer from lung ailments. our lives are at stake if we don't address climate issues. Prescribed burns and summer fires are harmful to all. There are ways to deal with them, decreasing their impact

I'm not sure it CAN be a "right;" however, climate change is very real and if we humans don't do something about it now, future generations will pay the price

Dave Voiles

The so called "science" is not settled. These are the same people whose weather models have proven to be wrong. Remember we went from global warming to climate change. Bill Nye the fake science guy.

Heidi Owen

idiots.

Sam Ackerman

The same people that are scared about "climate change" are helping create the problem. They are having kids. More people = more climate change.
