Conservatives Make The Best Conservationists - Let's Prove It

Lest we forget the life soldiers died for, we should establish Green Freedom Parks full of memorial trees to remember and respect those who have served for us.

Places where culture, environment and heritage unite as one.

As an example, I want the vacant 127 hectare Defence Department Site in Maribyrnong, Australia, and adjacent public lands to become a national park.

I predict that fusing environmentalism and military heritage will establish conservatives as the best conservationists.

God Bless Freedom

God Bless Life

Yes just look at China.

Related topic: when I decided to go solar a couple of years ago, I had to dig through tons of BS about solar since most of the discussion came from liberals who talked up solar like it's the savior of us all --- but very few of them actually implemented it on their own. So I got very little meaningful information from them. The few of them who did install solar depended on net metering (selling power to the grid at a favorable rate) to make up for the times their solar didn't provide enough power (having to buy power from the grid). So they didn't have to do the math to make their solar use be worth the cost.

Unlike the conservatives/libertarians with a prepper mindset who have implemented solar to make themselves more energy self-reliant (in some cases going off-grid). They wanted solar to provide all or almost all the power they need for living their normal lifestyle so that if the Biden-hits-the-fan they'd be able to provide all of their power on their own with only minimal cuts in their lifestyle. These are the people who know how to make it work, much like the author's post wanting conservatives to be the real conservationists. (Of course I'm not sure solar is actually better for the environment, but that's another topic. The point is that the conservatives know how to implement solar better than the libs who adore it.)

When my wife and I take our EV on a trip I sometimes meet other EV owners (almost always libs) at the roadside chargers. I wish I had a dollar for every time they thanked me for saving the world by driving an EV. And I respond by telling them that about 22K to 23K of the 26K miles per year my wife put in the EV are charged at home in our all-electric house ... with 82% of that power provided by our home solar. At that point the lib EV owner always think I'm a rock star, at which point I show them the graph below and remind him that the Modern Warm Period is nothing to freak out over any more than the prior warm periods, that I don't believe the cult. I do it out of a desire for self-reliance so that their big government energy policies don't harm my retirement finances.
