The Green New Deal (GND) is important as a starting point to have a long, long overdue conversation about energy. Specifically: How we are going to eventually transition away from fossil fuels?

It's also important because it represents the sorts of zig-zags our social and political paths are inceasingly likely to take in the coming future as we're forced to face our looming economic, ecological and energy-related predicaments.
