Title: Volcanoes and Climate Change

As I write this Hawaii is in a state of emergency
as the Kilauea Volcano releases massive stores of
toxic gases and lava flows have forced hundreds
of evacuations. Changes in Earths tectonic
pressures are likely to increase volcanic
activity as the Earth continues to warm
unnaturally. The cost will be enormous. In the
Summer of 2017 alone the US spent over 350
billion dollars coping with climate change - a
record we are on track to surpass this year.

And this is nothing. After the mid-2030s
climate disruption will shift from its currently
relatively slow, linear progression into
exponentially accelerating disasters. Force 20
Superstorms, regional floods, wildfires covering
millions of acres, enduring drought and crop
failures, mass migrations and territorial wars
will overwhelm the ability of governments to
respond. If this sounds like science fiction
feel free to read research articles cited in my
book "Climate Deadline 2035" (2018).

We must return our atmosphere to a pre-industrial
280 ppm of CO2 (or at least stay below 350 ppm
the estimated cutoff for safety). Currently we
are above 400 ppm and climbing fast. We must
immediate get out of our climate shock and
implement safe and effective atmospheric carbon
removal and solar reflection.
5
Our team has a plan for beginning this work which
can also save the jobs of 800 Navajo workers a
the Navajo Generating Station in Page on which
the Hopi Tribe depends for over 80 of it's GDP.
Our plan, Algae Assisted Carbon Capture
Reflection (AACCR) appears to have the best
chance of success. AACCR augments the natural
process of carbon "drawdown" and storage
performed by EHUX algae in the equatorial oceans
by feeding them by-products from Carbon Capture
technology placed on existing carbon emitting
power plants. This can be done, we have the
technology, but will we use it in time.

Climate Deadline 2035 tells the story of the
intense race we are all in to beat the point of
no return in the 2030s. Our own best hope for
survival lies not in the hands of scientists or
government, or corporations but in the will of
the citizens of our planet to mobilize and demand
action.

We are depending on intelligent readers like
those of Green Living to join with us and
confront this difficult task. Like the challenge
we faced and overcame in World War II this
problem will not go away and anyone can see it is
getting worse.

You don't have to vote for me, but you must vote
for someone with a plan to address the need for
climate repair - and sadly I am you only choice
so far. If we do not, it will not matter what
our teachers are paid, or if we manage to keep
guns out of our schools, or deal fairly with
migration issues (which are all issues on our
platform to be sure).
9
We need to have a functioning atmosphere for
those things to matter! By the mid-2030's it
will be too late to make repairs. It is not too
late to change our children's future and avert a
life of climate suffering - it is to late to say
you have not been warned! Please join us."
