Hi Karen,

This could potentially initiate a presidential debate on the candidates' positions on ecology, technology, science education priorities, environmental issues, etc. I think these issues have become more important to the general population than in the past and the candidate's stand should be presented along with the more traditional concerns, such as taxation, nation building/isolationism, global trade, etc.
