[highlight-text]You will die but the carbon will not; its career does not end with you. It will return to the soil and there a plant may take it up again in time sending it once more on a cycle of plant and animal life.

[highlight-text]If we bestow but a very little attention to the economy of the animal creation we shall find manifest examples of premeditation perseverance resolution and consumate artifice in order to effect their purpose.

[highlight-text]We assume that everything's becoming more efficient and in an immediate sense that's true; our lives are better in many ways. But that improvement has been gained through a massively inefficient use of natural resources.

[highlight-text]Liberals in Congress have spent the past three decades pandering to environmental extremists. The policies they have put in place are in large part responsible for the energy crunch we are seeing today. We have not built a refinery in this country for 30 years.
