And if you talked with Lawrence Cooper he’d probably tell you it would be a big help in getting to 33% renewable energy in California. You’d think it would be a no-brainer with our Renewable Portfolio Standard requiring electric companies to offer 20% of all electricity to be generated from renewable sources.

So, it’s kind of hard to fulfill my global destiny as the pied piper of solar energy, the impassioned Solangelist preaching from my SunPowered pulpit at the big renewable revival meeting when my rooftop is still covering with nothing but asphalt shingles and raccoon scat. Where’s the credibility in that?

Our relationship started about a month ago when we spent an evening together carpooling to a UCLA workshop on communication climate change that we both participated in. Climate Change: The State of Current Knowledge - 2005. And we were running a “Sharing Nature With Children&# workshop in the park.
