Ever since the much advertised Pickens Plan was announced I have kept myself from jumping on the Pickens Bandwagon. I decided that I had many reasons to distrust an oil billionaire when they suddenly start to care for the environment, so I have stood back and watched. I joined his Facebook fan page, follow him on Twitter and have Linkedin to him all so I could watch and learn more. It seemed too good to be true…. Nice TV commercials though.
Solar and Wind are a good thing. Don’t get me wrong. We need it and we need it bad! But are the intentions of an oilman good? I don’t know. I am torn and I don’t know what to think. But the video from Zaproot below give us all more to think about.
So, now what? I stand back and keep watching. Reserving my final judgment because I so want this to be for the good. Kind of like my opinion of Wal-Mart. They have done a lot of bad, but they are starting to do a lot of good. People can and do change? Can Pickens? Did I open a can of worms with the Wal-Mart comment? That will be another post.
