Klobuchar tackles global warming and Kennedy lies about nuclear while Great Lakes fall

Yesterday Amy Klobuchar running for he Senate from Minnesota said her moves to slow greenhouse gas emissions and global warming would match those of Arnold, the California muscle man.

Kennedy fought back with lies that nuclear power emits zero greenhouse gas emissions and pushed for more stations.
Meanwhile, Lake Michigan Huron and Superior continue to fall to near record minimum levels - likely a result of Upper Midwest climate change due to global warming.

Neither Klobuchar nor Kennedy brought up our need to Conserve Now to reduce greenhouse gas emissions caused from our transportation by air,
highways and rail.

"For all practical purposes, there is today only one world suitable for man. Measured by nature's standards rather than by those of historical man, it is at present a delicately balanced, highly perishable world that has evolved over long geologic epochs of environmental change. And man, acting as if he owned this world, or at
least had come into leasehold possession of it, has played his role as lessee very indifferently…" (Lyton Caldwell, 1971)
