Why not a portion of the budget dedicated to the deployment of clean energy projects.. Small wind and solar on every roof... Vertical axis turbines on every utility pole.. We have the technology to power our societies with clean renewable energy now.. Lets do it! ecowatch/2014/12/11/federal-budget-bill-impact-climate/?utm_source=EcoWatch+List&utm_campaign=8d3fbf4eaa-Top_News_12_12_2014&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_49c7d43dc9-8d3fbf4eaa-85361889 Sewage from our homes is a vast energy source that needs to be harnessed.. We can be generating power from the treatment of sewage it does not have to be an energy drain. sciencedaily/releases/2011/01/110105121131.htm The numbers are in and they stand up for themselves.. Record wind power generation in Europe lowering the cost of energy for its citizens and keeping revenue in local economies!.. Denmark generating over 33% of its power for the entire year from wind! Portugal, Spain and Ireland generating 18% or better of their energy for the entire year from wind! Germany the largest economy in Europe generated over 10% of its electricity for the year from wind! Why not here in North America? Uncooperative political leaders.. The fact that the Production Tax Credit (PTC) was let lapse demonstrates unreliable policy for fostering clean renewable energy projects. We need to fix this now, not later.... ecowatch/2014/01/16/wind-energy-records-europe/ Long term commitment is needed for the deployment of renewable energy.. The dirty energy industries enjoy entrenched subsidies that have been providing them revenue for many decades.. We need to go further.. We need a dedicated manufacturing effort to get wind and solar on every roof top.. Vertical axis wind turbines on top of every utility pole would be a logical step.. The structure is in place to elevate the turbine to a higher altitude and the wiring is there to feed power into.. This equipment pays for its self! Why cant we see an ongoing manufacturing effort to make and install these much needed pieces of equipment? Long term commitment is needed for the deployment of renewable energy.. The dirty energy industries enjoy entrenched subsidies that have been providing them revenue for many decades.. We need to go further..

Why cant we see an ongoing manufacturing effort to make and install these much needed pieces of equipment? winddaily/reports/Environmental_group_US_tax_credit_for_wind_energy_not_enough_999.html Natural gas is not any clean energy solution.. Its a big problem.. We dont need to be disillusioning ourselves.. We need to be deploying clean renewable energy projects now and only clean renewable energy projects.. Projects like wind, wave, solar and biofuel are real investments in the communities they serve.. ca.wiley/WileyCDA/PressRelease/pressReleaseId-111081.html Biopower for economic health of rural communities!.. Lets support our own farmers and not foreign companies and nations. Growing crops to be used in anaerobic digesters is a efficient, clean way to generate power.. This giving our farmers another revenue stream to access While fostering energy and national security.. This is the road to energy independence not any fracking foolishness! renewableenergyworld/rea/news/article/2012/10/bio-power-shows-competitive-edge Using clean renewable energy sources to generate hydrogen is the ideal situation.. Perhaps in the future even the vehicles themselves can be plugged into a power source and form their own hydrogen from water stored on the vehicle.. Some research into a small, cost effective unit to generate hydrogen would be useful.. A vehicle would require a small onboard unit.. This documentary tells the story of hydrogen through a series of intriguing interviews from those working on cutting-edge hydrogen technologies. The program explains to viewers every step of the process, including how hydrogen is created, how it is transported and dispensed, and how it is used in fuel cell vehicles and other end uses... https://youtube/watch?v=76ujMtLr5Z8 Get involved.. Sign the petition against a nuclear waste storage facility on the shore of Lake Huron.. This is the nuclear industries attempt to keep a low profile about their irresponsible business practices while putting 20% of the worlds fresh water supply in jeopardy of contamination.. https://facebook/pages/Stop-The-Great-Lakes-Nuclear-Dump/488484027858649 This study shows the great lakes area to have excellent wind energy resources now and in the future. This will make for efficient use of the wind energy as there are many large metropolitan areas on the shores of the great lakes. Transmission line losses will be minimal. winddaily/reports/Global_warming_wont_harm_wind_energy_production_climate_models_predict_999.html Energy drives our economies and the level of quality of our lives. Where we obtain the energy and how well we use it are choices that our society has to make based on the needs of the many. The select few have managed to obtain all kinds of subsidies to foster and grow the dirty energy industries that they hold a monopoly over. Subsidizing these industries with our money is not an intelligent choice! This wrongly placed financial support is a direct attack on clean renewable energy. Things need to change and they need to change now! The needs of the many are support for local economies, local jobs, energy security, national security and the health of the community! The needs of the many are clean renewable energy projects like wind, wave, biofuel and solar! ecowatch/2013/03/28/fossil-fuel-subsidies-a-global-scandal/
