In County Supervisor Sue Frost’s recent newsletter, she lets us know what’s important to her. No, it’s not the billions of dollars in damage that make the Southeastern US virtually uninsurable because of record hurricane seasons, it’s not the record droughts, subsequent record forest fire seasons and floods that originate with global warming. It’s not continued petroleum dependence that fuels that warming, and is the motivation for the endless wars in the Middle East. And it’s certainly not that important we’re draining county resources available to deal with the enormous climate-related damage barreling down the track toward us, choosing instead to spend a billion dollars to enlarge the County Jail.
No, none of that is important. What’s important is it may take truckers longer to fill their batteries than their gas tanks. That’s what’s important. To Sue.
