Candidates: Talk About Climate Change

The Issue

LET'S MAKE SOME NOISE ABOUT GLOBAL WARMING!  Global warming is one of the most terrifying issue we face. Let's let candidates know how important it is for them to talk about their position and plans to take on global warming. Denial on the personal level saves our sanity, but on a social level, it's inexcusable.

Even the people who think global warming is 'natural' probably want to address the issue. If lightening were to cause a 'natural' fire in their house, they'd try to put it out. If not, let it be apparent that they'd let the house burn down. 

If a candidate believes that global warming is natural and shouldn't be stopped, let it be shown clearly to the public that they'd let the house burn down and let big oil continue in it's economic revelry.

(BTW, the person who is starting this position is a mother of 2 small boys who would love to help leave them a planet they can live a long healthy life on.  Not an earth racked by freak weather and ecosystem mayhem. (Anyone notice new bugs in their area lately? This is just the beginning.)   I try to teach my boys that it's better to be safe than sorry and to clean up after themselves.)
