Charge because that is a racist charge. then when it was revealed that they were wrong, nobody even talks about it. it was a headline. a massive story. i would never do that. first of all, i have great respect for dr. martin luther king. so i would never do that. but when it was revealed that it was wrong, it wasn t even a story. what i am saying, sean, is this. much of the media is very, very dishonest. honestly, it is fake news. it is fake. sean: you know this from your years in the building. it is the lifeblood of our economy. we have more shale, technology, we have hydro- fracking natural gas. how important of a goal is it s that you wantou this country to move towards energy independence? it is very important. can you do it in four years?
Portion of the american people on the proposition you will bring back coal jobs. a lot of people will wait for that. we need jobs. we don t want an argument of how many jobs we will lose. we need the country to grow jobs. we need to grow gdp 3%. you think you can bring back coal jobs? you will have a big boom in fossil fuels and coal? i think we will see a boom in natural gas with hydro fracking. i agree we will not see a boom in coal. that is a base load of 30% of energy. we need to keep it there. you know we cannot have a base load based on wind and solar. take away the tax credits. wind and solar are not competitive in the country. the future is in natural gas. we need to have a future in nuclear. that s highly debatable. everyo country will determine is path. we will see what the president
United states. that treaty supersedes any laws that the state might make later. and so today obama could literally could say that we are honoring the 1851 treaty and we are not allowing that easement to be taken as private property. that s basically at the crux of the issue. that easement that they re talking about as private property, based on the 1851 treaty, the standing treaty that these people made with the american government, is indian land, native american land that belongs to the standing rock sioux reservation, and nation. mark ruffalo, you get involved in a lot of environmental causes, but have you been involved with native american causes before? yes. i stood side by side with my native brothers and sisters here when we were fighting hydro fracking in new york state. the pipeline is about to move through new york state, and we re also setting up a camp
Delicate operation of refloating the wrecked cruise ship costa concordia. it s been 2 1/2 years since that ship ran aground, capsizing and killing 32 people on board. it is now being towed to its home port where it will be scrapped. a mysterious odor led to the evacuation of about 50 homes in pennsylvania. emergency crews detected high levels of volatile organic compounds in several homes near philadelphia. the red cross shelter has been set up now for evacuees. the epa and other agencies are working to determine the source of those fumes. quite an unsettling weekend in oklahoma, seven earthquakes reported over the last two days, the largest registered a magnitude of 4.3. there s been a huge spike in earthquakes reported in the state. this year alone 207 quakes with 3.0 magnitude or higher. the state averaged just two per year in 1978 to 2008. no official reason for the spike, but many suggest hydro
With. for a long time it felt like you didn t have to look too closely when you filled up the tank. but now, what? $75? when did that happen? on some level it s a good thing because there is always alternative energy sources including i m not a big fan of it, hydrofracking. that s where you drill down and get the gas i m from pennsylvania where hydro fracking is a big deal. all of a sudden alternative fuels start looking cost effective. the biggest problem we have in mayor case it s hard to wean us off the oil. as soon as it starts getting expensive. martha: punish us all into buying something we don t necessarily want to buy. i think it might be one of the better things that happens.
