"Congressman Hank Johnson who said Guam would tip over and capsize"-Knavel
From the end of the article you posted!
Congressman Hank Johnson said "he was concerned that the influx of military personnel would overwhelm the island's infrastructure and ecosystem.
"The subtle humour of this obviously metaphorical reference to a ship capsizing illustrated my concern about the impact of the planned military build-up on this small tropical island," he said.
Madeleine Bordallo, Guam's delegate to the House, told Kuam News that she understood his comment were in jest.
"I know Congressman Hank Johnson, and I'm sure that - he's been here to Guam - so I'm sure that it was just a joke," she said.
Sailors on the island reportedly took the comments in good humour.
One is said to have shown up for his duty posting wearing a life vest "just in case”. "
Its called humour...

However the "green" lobby is a fan of cars with a 5 year lifespan (electric), as replacing the failed batteries is uneconomical thus rendering the chassis and internal fittings as scrap.

Rudolf Diesel states, "In 1900 a small Diesel engine was exhibited by the Otto company which, on the suggestion of the French Government, was run on arachide [peanut] oil, and operated so well that very few people were aware of the fact. The motor was built for ordinary oils, and without any modification was run on vegetable oil." Diesel went on to say that "I have recently repeated these experiments on a large scale with full success and entire confirmation of the results formerly obtained."
