His lecture basically put everything into perspective for me. I new the amount of CO2 U.S. was producing was bad, and new that we needed to find new sources of green energy was important. But his lecture kind of opened my eyes and made me think about the other countries again. In the begging I knew that solving climate change and getting green energy was a job the entire world had to participate in. However over the past couple of months all I've really been hearing about is how bad the U.S. is in all of this and how we need to do all of things to be like the other countries. I really liked how one of the very first things he said was that climate change is something everybody needs to work on and not individually on a person to person scale of on a whole country scale. Everybody needs to put forth effort or else it really wont work.
He also did a good job of showing the pro's and the con's to us. He wasn't really lobbying for green energy he was just showing numbers good and bad and then saying we need to make a choice. And if we do go with green energy we need to find cheaper/more effective ways to produce and distribute it because the way they are doing it now is way to expensive. He showed how much of each energy source we need and then basically why it would be almost impossible to do it.
