We need a balanced, long term energy policy
to reduce our dependence on foreign oil and preserve the beauty of the land we love.

The more we focus on using renewable fuels, the less we are dependent upon foreign oil.

Oil creates the illusion of a completely changed life, life without work, life for free.
Oil is a resource that anaesthetises thought, blurs vision, corrupts.

Oil has allowed us to think about economics as though energy doesn't matter.
Oil demand is going to continue to grow as population grows

"In the near future, despite the development of alternative energy, when you look at the economics and environmental standards, then there's no other source of primary energy in the world than natural gas.
Well, perhaps there is nuclear energy but there are also a lot of issues there and there are opponents of nuclear energy.
Gas doesn't have those opponents.

Siberia, which supplies nearly 80 percent of Russia's oil and natural gas resources, so always be aware of how big a pollutant that industry is. But it was a huge wake-up call to learn that the fashion industry is the second-largest polluter after oil."

INTERNAL SECURITY
👉"I believe that our national security lies not just in protecting our borders, but in bridging divides."
👉"We cannot continue to rely only on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives that we've set. We've got to have a civilian national security force that's just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded."
👉The country faces a challenging situation of dealing with internal security threats in the form of insurgency in north-eastern States, separatist movement in Kashmir, and the Khalistan struggle in Punjab.
👉Retaliation cannot be an answer to extremist attacks. Since the disturbances cannot be caused without local support, the country has to take precautions and be on its guard to ensure that things do not go out of control.

Plato's streamlined view of political and social life holds that the city-state should be governed by a ruler with philosophical training capable of comprehending the true nature of reality, justice, and wisdom, and where one's place in society is determined by one's natural abilities.
By contrast, Plato's student Aristotle, while incorporating and responding to many aspects of Platonic thought, develops a decidedly organic, or this-worldly, system of ethics and a corresponding structure for the polis as embodied in the texts of the Nicomachean Ethics and the Politics....

Trealheory of Forms.
The Theory of Forms states that, while experience is changing and illusory, ideal forms are static and real.
Plato advanced Parmenides theory that both experience and forms are real .
The philosophy of Plato is marked by the usage of dialectic, a method of dialogue involving ever more insightful insights into the nature of reality, and by cognitive optimism, a belief in the capacity of the human mind to attain the truth and to use this truth for the coherent and righteous ordering of human affairs.
Plato believed that conflicting interests of different parts of society can be consistent. The best, rational and righteous, political order, which he proposes, leads to a harmonious agreement of society and allows each of its parts to flourish, but not at the expense of others.

PLATO SAYS..
❤️Love is a serious mental disease.
😐Your silence gives consent.
🤨Justice means minding one's own business and not meddling with other men's concerns.
🥺Be kind, for everyone you meet is fighting a hard battle.
👺Only the dead have seen the end of war.
🐢Never discourage anyone... who continually makes progress, no matter how slow.
🤴The measure of a man is what he does with power.
🦸♂Courage is knowing what not to fear.
🧛♂One of the penalties for refusing to participate in politics is that you end up being governed by your inferiors.
🧞♀Philosophy begins in wonder.

Wise men talk because they have something to say; fools, because they have to say something.
The first and greatest victory is to conquer yourself; to be conquered by yourself is of all things most shameful and vile.
The price good men pay for indifference to public affairs is to be ruled by evil men.
– Plato

As per Plato ,
Idea is the essence of everything. Physical manifestation of any thing can change with
time but the idea will always remain permanent and can never be destroyed so idea is the true reality.
The physical world which we experience around us is just a temporary image of it.
Considering the
physical world as real just because our senses can experience it is an example of our ignorance.
