A message for the next President of the United States

There are issues with the energy needs of civilization that simply defy the petty positioning of politicians.  The SolREI company is working toward a plan we hope to announce at a later date and it isn't drill baby drill.



It's fly baby, fly.

SolREI, a strategic sustainability corporation, has been founded to establish an enduring and sustainable biosphere by 2100.  While we have only just begun, that's a step, and we are a far from finished. We can see clearly now and while our vision may be high it is grounded in sustainability for our biosphere.  If you have the fortitude to contemplate big bold ideas then help us communicate this page to everyone you know.

What would the next President say announcing such an endeavor? We have a few thoughts on that too, and we have told every President (and many in Congress) these words every year since 2006. Get your copy today from SolREI Publishing.  Two things you can do right now to help.

SolREI Publishing has implemented a special program from now until the end of November, if you purchase One Pilgrim's Wish for Earth from our distribution portal, and use discount code: 9UYSVWFV - you will receive $10.00 off the list price.  Help us drive the message!

2006 EPA Response

One Pilgrim's Wish for Earth

President G.W. Bush delegated to those he held accountable for areas of responsibility.  That is a hallmark trait of any good executive.  This case is no different.  The original letter and the original copy of this speech, were directed by the White House to the Environmental Protection Agency and below is their response to that proposal.  It is what it is and anyone interested in pressing these issues will need to recognize the penetration these notions have into the economy and how we have collectively and globally organized society to deal with them.  There is no greater agenda here than trying to find a way to satisfy civilization's thirst for energy in a sustainable and enduring manner.  I can hear the voices of the paranoid being stoked by the entrenched 'status quo' now.  At some point we have to collectively be smart enough to penetrate entrenched rhetoric and seek higher ground for all the right reasons.

The author would argue that this response fundamentally ignored the point of the speech.  It didn't "miss the point", because those are smart people.  They ignored the point because it was politically expedient to do so.  It should be noted that there is no single "silver bullet" here.  The premise posited by the manuscript has a duplicitous objective of satisfying energy needs, creating jobs, improving GDP position, and at the same time, quite simultaneously, of improving the condition of the biosphere.  It should be noted too, that the author used the word biosphere and not atmosphere.

All too often, deniers want to claim these issues are sequenced simply for argument's sake.  Ignorant of the actual chronology, they have ignored that "Climate Change" has always been the overarching topic, with Global Warming and Ocean Acidification as peer challenges for us to face.  The above response from the EPA completely ignores ocean acidification.  Why?  Because it's demonstrable, is the only answer we can give.

As you sit here today, reading this greater than 22% of the shallow water coral reefs around the world are already dead.  We may never know the impact to deep water corals.

The answer is not to stop drilling.  The answer is no single "silver bullet".  The answer is to recognize that our biosphere is the only home we have.  The answer comes from a decades old cartoon opossum from the newspaper comics, named Pogo; who said "we have met the enemy and he is us."

There is a solution and it will work.  We can create an enduring, sustainable infrastructure that will deliver the global energy required by civilization and it will empower humanity to do things beyond the imaginations of the entrenched pundits.

One Pilgrim's Wish for Earth

One Pilgrim's Wish for Earth, is the result of an off handed comment someone made to me about what would a President's speech look like if he really needed to say something to the Nation about a strategic direction implementing an enduring business presence in orbital space whose mission was to resolve global energy wants and needs.  That 'theoretical' speech was a) sent to the President and b) published as One Pilgrim's Wish for Earth.  And since it was written prior to the 2007 State of the Union Address - it was in fact sent to the White House and the response letter from the Vice President thanking me is copied in the manuscript.

Think changing a few light bulbs will save the planet? The problem's scope is much broader and deeper than those meager efforts would accomplish. Those 'meager efforts' are necessary but insufficient in and of themselves. We need a comprehensive, strategic plan. 'Climate Change' is the single most massive and serious situation ever to face human kind indeed all life on Earth and it is bigger than just weather. Solving it will take every bit of 90 years and involve every facet of life on our planet. We must use our free will and act quickly in the face of an ever narrowing window of opportunity to succeed. This is the text of my proposal, in speech form, made to the President of the United States PRIOR to his delivering the 2007 "State of the Union" address. This plan drives hope beyond 2100, provides for job creation, and improvements in standards of living across the planet. Discover a strategic plan that can solve the problem.
