Education
Since virtually all Americans are aware of the ill effects caused by the gridlock in our two topics, Global Warming and Dysfunctional Congress, they surely desire change. We just have to bring them up to speed in better ways of thinking about the problems, particularly working on root causes rather than symptoms.
This means getting them exposed to logical explanations of how America got where it is now, why pivotal changes are required, what those are, and how they will improve matters greatly.
The sections below will provide some tools to help you participate in bringing the people of our great country up to speed. Of course, creating messages in your own words is even better.
Global Warming
Use this note or your own version of it on Facebook, Twitter, and other social media platforms.
(Modify as needed to stay within the character limits for your social media.)
America has failed in causing greenhouse gas emissions to fall at the rate they must? The picture for the globe as a whole is worse. This is disconcerting considering all the effort and money that have been expended.

Write letters or Opinion pieces to newspapers, magazines, blogs, or any other media to reach the public. Below is a message that can be sent as-is, or better yet, personalized by you.
Global warming mitigation is not proceeding at all well in America and globally. First, we don’t have a
Blueprint developed by scientists and economists – a widely accepted Blueprint. Second, we must phase
out the present method of attacking one industry or subsidizing another with unrealistic timetables
and huge costs and instead institute a green-house-gas-emissions pricing system that will be simple,
fair, and less costly for the results obtained. For much more detail, see the website at

Dysfunctional Congress
Use this note or your own version of it on Facebook, Twitter, and other social media platforms.
(Modify as needed to stay within the character limits for your social media.)
Congress is not doing its job at all well, and a root cause is its division into two diametrically opposed and essentially equal-sized parties that fight each other on almost everything. Virtually all modern democracies have more than two parties, thereby creating a greater variety of viewpoints and necessity for civil negotiations. We have fallen behind.
Changing our electoral systems to Multi-Member Districts for the House and using Ranked Choice Voting for congress will quickly facilitate more parties, eliminate gerrymandering and safe seats, and give us a functional congress.
