There’s not much question that Obama’s address tonight, on the 45th anniversary of I Have a Dream, will be the most important of the election. So the question for enviros is, will Obama be able to talk about the most important issue of the next decade or so, which is to say, climate change?
The danger of bringing it up is that Obama needs more than anything else not to look like an elitist. He’s not going to win as the next Al Gore. High gas prices have been putting a lot of middle-class voters in the pro-drilliing, anti-conservation column lately. A speech that failed to make environmentalism a central issue would be sad but understandable. The Machiavellian in me kind of hopes he runs away from global warming until he gets elected.

As a quote “enviro” based on the article, Obama avoiding the issue of climate change in his speech this evening would be fatal. I agree that his speech this evening will likely be the most important to date. But, a better option to avoiding the topic of climate change would be speaking the truth about it. Scientists and Economists know that opening new drilling for oil will not have a substantial effect on oil prices for over five years, and even at that point the price changes will be less than twenty cents per gallon. Why shouldn’t he tell this to the American Public. Lay out his energy plan, which is his significant advantage over McCain at this point would be ideal.
