The Denver Post:
In a tiny corner of the Denver Museum of Nature & Science, Biden and his entourage of Cabinet members unveiled plans to spend $500 million to train residents of public housing projects to weatherize homes and launch other new-energy careers.
Of that money, $50 million will go to manufacturing communities hit hardest by the decline of the auto industry.

Thank you, Joe.
Excellent, VP Biden. Anything we can do to promote green, keep Americans employed, stimulate our economy I support 100%. Thank you, Joe.
Alternate headline: VP preaches to the choir.
Try telling unionized coal workers that they will be retrained to weather-strip rich people's vacation homes. Then I'll know he is serious.
Until then, not so much.
We could solve all our economy problems, our dependency from foreign fuel if we will stop stupid recommendation provided by scientists, who advised Al Gore about global warming. Wind, solar cell, geothermal, nuclear power are disaster for environment.
Mr. President, fire Steven Chu and others supporters of Al Gore recommendation in Government.
As Democrat, as Republican for some reason make from science of global warming circus for debate.
If Democrat seeing only carbon dioxide as reason, Republican arguing about the same carbon dioxide. Republican is only diminishing role of mankind in producing carbon dioxide.
Please stop nonsense.
It is not only carbon dioxide or other GHG play role in climate.
It is winds and their direction, which send hot air to cloud level.
It is reflection, which send short wave back to space.
It is huge convection forces.
It is cloud formation.
It is ocean streams.
It is properties of water and ice.
It is water evaporation, which take a lot of energy on the ground level and send vapor as lighter gas to cloud level, where infrared radiation escapes to space. Mankind activities changed not only carbon dioxide, which is not main player in Nature, but only tilling of land changed reflection, convection forces, evaporation and cloud formation.
Claiming only carbon dioxide will direct our activities in wrong direction.
We need to use all natural properties to reduce effect of global warming especially cooling effects of water vapor, water droplet, water, and ice.

Mioffe: “In our society, you need to publish your ideas and data in a peer-reviewed academic journal before anyone will believe you. If you think you know better than the scientists who have been through this process, then you need to take them on in the academic journals.”
Dear dynwitch, in our society we need to have credentials to be published. I tried many magazines, newspapers, etc. They prefer write about GW opinion of Tony Blair, Pac ki-moon, Robert Redford, Tomas Friedman and many others, which are not scientists and repeat Al Gore mistakes.
“Your other path to success is to sign up with a rightwing think tank funded by the big oil, car, and gas industries, and then you have a blank check to go around spouting whatever stupid lies you want.”
I always tried to be out of politic, because there ideas mean less than opinion of bosses.
I am retired and solved all problems with GW 4 years ago.
Please try my ideas, not my credential. Show me where I am wrong, except English, which is not my native language.
If you will found mistakes of Al Gore and scientists which support him, as I did, you will understand that they solutions gave our Government wrong directions, which will bring to nature more damage, than good things. It is very dangerous.
That is reason why I respond on many articles.
I hope that somebody will pay attention on reasoning, not credential.
Obama and Biden;
$30 for bankers and $1 for the peasants in the stimulus plan.
Its peanuts in scope and without re-negotiating bad trade deals the plan wont work.
We need the infrastructure investment in HEMP PROCESSING PLANTS.
We also need other basic manufacturing returned or we will limp along for years to come.
