After a decade in the solar power installation business, Bradley Bartz is tired of being Mr. Nice Guy. He’s filed suit against Torrance, the proud home of Exxon/Mobil’s refinery, for stopping him from installing solar panels in the Hillside Overlay district. “ Idiots ! “ Idiots !&#

A paper by a team from the University of Chicago and MIT suggests that technology-driven cost reductions in fossil fuels will lead to the continued use of fossil fuels—oil, gas, and coal—unless governments pass new taxes on carbon emissions. for oil, 24% for coal, and 20% for natural gas.

Some of the findings of the report include: Global consumption of coal (responsible for about 40% total CO 2 emissions) grew in 2011 by 5%, whereas global consumption of natural gas and oil products increased by only 2% and 1%, respectively. Coal consumption in China increased by 9.7% Japan (4%).

Natural gas is projected to account for more than one quarter of all global energy needs by 2040 and it is expected to overtake coal as the largest source of electricity. Wind, solar and biofuels are likely to make up about 4% of energy supplies in 2040, up from 1% in 2010. Source: ExxonMobil.

Available technology such as diesel particulate filters for vehicles and cleaner- burning biomass and solar cookstoves can significantly reduce black carbon emissions. A recent study reported that ozone’s damage to crop yields in 2000 resulted in an economic loss of $14-26 billion annually.

But I will admit that one thing has changed even more than the size of our electric bill and that’s the size of the solar PV system we now need to generate 100% of our electricity – because the same moves that cut our electric bill also cut the number of solar panels we need by 50% too.

They think BYD has a shot at becoming the worlds largest automaker, primarily by selling electric cars, as well as a leader in the fast-growing solar power industry. By about 2000, BYD had become one of the worlds largest manufacturers of cellphone batteries. "Solar is an endless source of energy," Wang says.

Denmark did that with Wind Power and now most of their energy comes from wind rather than oil, natural gas, or coal. Plus you can use solar and break technology, as well as other more experimental technology, and never have to charge it because it would then charge itself. Can you say, never need a gas or charging station again?
