During the presidents State of the Union Adress, there was a subject the President spoke about that caught my interest. The part when he spoke about new, cleaner energy sources was a great relieve to hear. When the president mentioned that he would put more money and attention towards businesses that were into finding new cleaner energy sources. I was intesrested about this because despite the fact that space probes have found other planets with some form of habitable surface, it will be still decades or centuries before we find another planet that is 100% or so identical to Earth, and tons more years before we are able to colonize it. So with that in note, right now focusing on cleaning and helping the planet we currently live on should be a major priority.Obama was right about taking the money, that would've been given to oil companines, and giving to industries that are focusing on solar, water and wind energy. Also adding that, when Obama stated that it be better to pass a patent reform bill so there would less time and resources wasted on getting the, on what I'm guessing, paperwork and fees and have more those getting the work done. "Climate change is a fact", Obama stated this, so with that in mind if we want our summers to be considered warm and sunny then we must work on our climate.
