Well I'm pretty sure that everyone knows what I'm going to argue for this, but I will do it anyways. Oil and car companies need incentive to take initiative on climate change. For some reason the fact that no one will survive the coming crisis escapes oil executives. According to many scientists, the deadline for acting on climate change is next year, 2010. We have no time to waste. A grassroots movement, a grassroots revolution is necessary in my eyes. But change comes from the bottom up and the top down. Regulation should be passed immediately to combat this problem. Slimy (pun intended) oil execs must be made aware of their impact on our future, and must be forced to compensate for it. Since we have established that the American Masses are too apathetic and hopped up on consumerism to mobilize themselves, the enlightened members of society must work their hardest to make the change we need. WAKE UP! What these people, Fox News, CNN, Dick Cheney, CEOs, what they are telling you we need to fix the economy, to make you feel happier, to provide for your family, IS FALSE. Break free from your standstill. We have to make the rich people who are stealing your money and your future pay. I'm not a very vengeful person, but much of the blame must fall on their shoulders.
That's all beside the point though. The point is that if we want tour "great civilization" to survive, if we want to live our entire lives in it, then we must protect it. I don't believe it will survive. I believe we will fall much harder than anyone expects, and much of what we have worked for will be destroyed and we will return to a previous way of life. But if we do not act with the urgency, then humans will not survive at all.
Some rich assholes just need some government intervention to jump start their moral redemption.

If we were to produce electric cars that run off solar power we could eliminate most of the CO2 and revive our spiraling economy. I don't know if car companies will ever be able to do this, but it is deffinetly something we need to do....
Topping the list for 2007 compensation in the sector was Occidental Petroleum's (OXY) longtime chief Ray Irani, who received a $33.62 million package in 2007, actually down from $52.14 million in 2006. The head of the No. 1 U.S. energy major had the No. 2 compensation package: ExxonMobil's (XOM) Rex Tillerson, with $21.66 million in 2007, up from $18.37 million in 2006.
THIS IS MY FACT
