    "When it comes to climate science and the energy policies that result, the suite of candidates offers a position for everyone. Jill Stein would have a massive and expensive effort that would see the US become the world's leader in renewable energy. Clinton would take Obama's incremental steps and keep pushing them further, leaving us in much better shape but short of a comprehensive solution. Johnson might consider pushing the market along (or he might not), hoping that industry would get the hint and solve things for us. And Trump would pretend there's nothing to see, and we should all just move along to drilling more."

    • US is far-far away to "become the world's leader in renewable energy" because it's not just about the leadership of the country and the decisions they make.

    • Those kids could actually be the ones who turn urine into energy efficient fuel and create homemade wind turbines from detergent bottles.

    • However it looks more educational for kids rather than turning over a whole new leaf in energy without oil and coal, in transportation and infrastructure.

    • There is also a big issue in here. Says Jill wants to increase taxes on corporations. NOT TRUE. She wants to lower it from 35% to 15%. BUT raise taxes for rich.

    • In order to stimulate business and job growth and tax the super wealthy.

    • So personal gains for billionaires end up being 55%-60%. So instead of 100 billion, they'll have 45 billion. Still not bad, I think the 99% could agree.
