Integrating these sources helps mitigate climate change, reduce air pollution, and protect ecosystems. For example, solar and wind power do not deplete finite resources like coal, oil, and natural gas, contributing to more sustainable resource management.

In a June speech at Georgetown University, President Barack Obama said that the controversial Keystone XL pipeline would only be built if the project “ does not significantly exacerbate the problem of carbon pollution.” ( Earlier post.). This indicates that oil sands can grow using rail; it is already happening. Earlier post.).

The use of compressed or liquefied natural gas as a fuel for vehicles could help to displace oil and reduce greenhouse gas emissions, but to a limited extent because of the high cost of converting vehicles to use these fuels. At the same time, this would also reduce air pollutants such as oxides of sulfur and nitrogen oxides.

Slated for a July 2011 start, it would regulate 1000 of the country's biggest polluters and 75 percent of the country’s greenhouse gas emissions. In particular, Prentice seeks to shield Alberta’s emissions-intensive oil sands operations from the effects of emission reductions. Canada’s 2009 GHG emissions are 48.7%

The next major car markets approaching the tipping point this year include Canada, Australia, and Spain. Every nation that passed the EV tipping point did so as a result of a federal incentive and pollution control policy. According to the analysis, the “major challenge” for consumers is the cost of an EV.

The combination of harvesting whole forests and burning long-sequestered carbon sources such as coal or oil has impaired the Earth’s carbon cycle at an increasing pace. The grid then becomes more efficient, thus reducing the cost of delivered electricity to everyone. (In The significance of this opportunity is immense.

Oil is the alternative. Are we going to burn more oil, natural gas, or (gasp) coal to produce it? At current transportation battery prices, that is well beyond the cost of spinning reserve. The most common methods involve burning natural gas, oil or coal to power the engines to generate electricity. — Bada Bing 9.

The objections they raised for years -- "no one is interested, no one would plug in, the technology is too complex, the benefits are minimal, its just shifting the pollution from the tailpipe to the smokestack, theres no demand for these cars" -- still show up occasionally, but are by and large history. People wont buy a full car.

One thing is for sure; - electric cars bring down the air pollution, but they sure create another waste pollution problem.

It is simply the cost of doing business. "On some products, the costs, particularly in advanced technologies, are high," he said in a lengthy interview with Automotive News (free subscription required). Denmark did that with Wind Power and now most of their energy comes from wind rather than oil, natural gas, or coal.
