Can we do to bring our spirit back? What good thing could we focus on.
Sitting outside and hearing fireworks everywhere. Hoping it's just families trying to bring some normalcy to their kids.

There's no way in hell that vehicles should be getting 37 MPG in 2020. That number should be doubled or tripled. We need vehicles that get 95 - 100 MPG or more. We definitely aren't making enough of a push to get people to buy fuel efficient or electric vehicles. And electric trucks definitely can't come soon enough either. The sooner we replace the gas guzzlers the better.

Let's stop using fossil fuels for good and make a national switch to use hybrid and electric transportation. Switching to renewable energy will help heal the planet.
