Found Castro engaging and sincere. Impressive.

Yang surprised me. I hadn't seen him in an individual venue and he was quick and decisive with his answers.All candidates put out their plans prior to the Town Hall event. Worth going to their sites to review them. Get your electric cars and change your diet. No drilling on public lands. And of course the $1,000 a month.

Apparently MSNBC will be having a climate change forum later in the month.

Again questions on what we will have to give up. Really, the Amazon is burning and candidates are being asked about our personal sacrifice as if that's a deal breaker. Again, will we need to drive electric cars. Are we that easily inconvenienced? Dumb questions on plastic straws. Take it all please straws, bags, gas guzzlers, factory farms. Save the planet if we can. There's no planet B.

And the burger question. Good grief, the panic about changing out diets. Remembering Williamson's comment about health care. "Why are Americans so sick? Maybe just maybe a change in our eating habits might lower our health costs.

Stop me someone or I will go on a vegan rant.

Here we go again, question on beef and cheese. Activist against but Klobuchar reluctant. Yes go vegan if you want but....

Guess younger voters will have to lead here. 

More question on dietary change. Klobuchar doesn't want to give in on this one. Erin seems worried she will have to change her snacks.

Now a wolf question. Yup she ended protections for Minnesota's gray wolves. So how would you approach protecting the planet's biodiversity. Hmm. bet she's worried about the hunters in her state.

Now should we reduce our own use of energy. Again, our personal involvement. Should we  change our behavior and own our piece of the climate mess Good question not the greatest answer. My bias.

Do people have to start moving inland as rising sea levels occur.

Klobuchar supports an eventual ban on fracking, phasing it out for wind and solar but not an all out ban immediately.

Concerned about methane so why not advocate for dietary changes?

Go Liz! Throw her the keys.

 I love Yang!
