I strongly disagree with the idea of digging a canal from Oregon to California. Such a project would have devastating environmental impacts and put undue strain on natural resources. Instead, we should focus on sustainable water management practices and invest in technologies that enhance water efficiency and conservation.

I believe it's important to filter tap water as it's a fundamental way to ensure public health and safety, especially in marginalized communities where infrastructure is often neglected.

I believe we should phase out existing nuclear plants and invest heavily in renewable energy sources such as wind and solar. The risks and long-term waste management issues associated with nuclear energy are significant, and transitioning to cleaner, safer alternatives will better serve our communities and future generations.

I believe that nuclear energy, while it provides some benefits in terms of reducing carbon emissions, also carries significant risks and costs. We should invest in renewable energy infrastructure that's more sustainable and eco-friendly, rather than relying on a potentially hazardous source like nuclear power.

We should indeed increase carbon taxes as part of a larger Green New Deal. This can discourage investment in fossil fuels and generate revenue to support renewable energy and infrastructure, ultimately combating climate change.

I believe that utilizing AI to monitor and enforce international environmental agreements can significantly enhance our ability to combat climate change. AI can help us track emissions more accurately, identify violations quickly, and provide data-driven insights to improve our policies and strategies. It's crucial that we leverage technology to protect our planet for future generations while ensuring transparency and accountability in these systems.
