Jim Cramer: A Crude Awakening

Nah, that's not in the handbook.

I am a member of the Sierra Club. I have been a huge giver of land to trusts. I have backed Greenpeace, for heaven's sake.

But I know nothing's perfect. We are always going to have to deal with coal, which directly and indirectly causes 20,000 deaths a year. Ethanol will use a gigantic amount of water and drive up corn prices, the staple of our diet. Nuclear? Fukushima.

Natural gas? Oil? Plenty of things are wrong. But both, especially the former, can be used wisely to benefit our country. But you need people in Washington to think about it.

Somehow, that's just an impossibility.
