Renewable Energy Questions
Renewable energy? What are the best sources for someone to learn more about renewable energy? What renewable energy source do you think is ideal? What articles/books/podcasts/etc do you recommend on the subject? What do you think America's plan should be in creating a more sustainable world?
Who is doing renewable energy education? How are you accomplishing the task? What are you focused on? I am researching the current energy and renewable energy issues facing the world. The task is very extensive and complicated. Each region has renewable energy opportunities that can be important to environmental issues, economic development, and social needs for all humans. Government agencies, industry, agriculture, educational and research organizations are focused upon massive research efforts. This seems to provide a way to share information, thoughts and ways to help people to improve our lives by conserving energy, find alternative energy resources and realize that fossil fuels are depleting and non-renewable. Can renewable energy be a way to produce additional energy? Networking can provide valuable information to further the advancement of changing habits about energy. I am a farmer with a background in sustainable energy and educational degrees in agriculture. A sustainable energy for industrial and developing countries can improve the quality of life of all human beings.
How to purchase and use Renewable Energy Certificates? Can someone please explain if and how I can buy renewable energy certificates for my apartment electricity use.

What does it take to make Renewable Energy Economically viable? Workable energy resource requirements, Independent of being Renewable: 1)Energy available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and 365 days a year. 2)At retail level directly compete with energy resources for today’s activity - if not, sellable spin-off benefits to subsidize the cost. 3)Transportable 4)Technology available. 5)No more environmentally harmful than competing energy resources. 6)Supplies close enough to consumer that distribution losses due to capacity doesn't become an issue. 7)Politicians that back any solution be able to explain it to their constituents. The area below the question wasn't answering the question, but the breath of the question. I’ve heard you are brilliantly creative. Economically there is at least 1 item more disastrous than investing in renewable energy infrastructure, not having a replacement for fossil fuel. I don't wish to taint your creativity with my solution. The governments have tryed thinking small with little addition to supply. I've gone the opposite route to change the economics of Renewable Energy. Please be as creative as the person was that during WW II came up with running the exhaust through aircraft feul tanks to mitigate possibily of explosition when shot.

To the doubters of global warming, would you buy renewable energy? I hear you, you are sick of Al Gore and aren't convinced in the science behind global warming. But would you buy renewable energy anyway, since it pollutes less? Even if it cost a little more? Say $5 extra a month for 200KwH if your Electric Company offered it? It would be nice if congress passed a law that required Electric Companies to offer renewable energy so that at least you would have the option to buy renewable if you wanted to?

Instead of suspending the gas tax for the summer, what if the FEDs give a tax break for renewable energy? And take the fed gas tax and put the entire amount toward research for alternative fuels sources. That way there would be funding for research for renewable energy, and rebates for folks who actually save the environment and use less gas. Currently we have no incentive to save gas, other than the pocket book, and as soon as the price of gas goes below $3 everyone will be buying Hummers again. When demand goes down, so will the price....
