Green deal

The goal of the Green New Deal, in their words, is to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in order to avoid the worst consequences of climate change while also trying to fix societal problems like economic inequality and racial injustice. The first part of the plan is to replace fossil fuels with wind and solar and the second part is wealth redistribution and methods, procedures and possible laws to reduce white supremacy. White supremacy means that racism exist because whites have been in control and have set up the rules in their favor. In one way it means if you are white you are part of the problem. It would be better if the government started building thorium power plants and replacing existing nuke plants, as they wear out, with thorium. Thorium produces carbon free power without contaminating the air or water and has the added benefit of using up the stored nuclear waste. This is not talked about because it solves the first part without dealing with the second part which is the real purpose of the green deal. Once again politics is in the way.
