I'm going to keep this plain and simple. The upcoming Presidential election will undoubtedly focus on the economy. However, I also believe people will be focused on alternative energy. So, cut and dry, let's look at McCain's and Obama's separate plans in this regard. (Hat tip to the Green Skeptic for assembling all of this information).Obama's alternative energy plans (as per his website):Prov

The Issue: Congressional Democrats have conceded to allowing the 25-year moratorium on offshore drilling expire, allowing the oil that lies beneath the Pacific Coast to be subject to development.

Emily´s Eve Originally uploaded by Christoph DudekIs Alternative Energy and Fuel just around the corner? With soaring gas prices and increased energy demands, this is a major question posed for the upcoming Presidential Election.Who do you think has the better Energy Plan, Senator John McCain or Senator Barack Obama? They are both talking a good game about reducing oil dependance on foreign oil
"In the last year, alternative energy has been a popular investment sector to say the least. And while solar and wind energy companies have already proved they can turn a profit with their products, even if they must rely on the tax incentives of kind-eyed governments to do it, fuel cell manufacturers haven’t seen such [...]
The Wall Street Journal published a must-read editorial about liberals and environmentalists blocking renewable energy production. It seems the party whose energy plan is to “drive small cars and wait for the wind,” doesn’t want to build the power grid necessary for wind and solar energy farms.
Healthy food is still the best energy booster. A healthy meal can guard off fatigue. Sadly, it is hard to keep track of our food eating. What is the next best choice? Energy boost herbs.

Congress has left for August recess without extending renewable energy tax credits, which are set to expire at the end of 2008. Congress will meet for three more weeks this year, in September.The debate in the Senate, where Republicans blocked the latest attempt to extend the tax credits, is not about renewable energy. Everyone seems to be in favor of it. The argument is over how to fund it. The m

I've been thinking about the uses of alternative energy, and I was thinking of the best places we could employ, windturbines, solar cells and Geo-thermal heating systems. What we need are places that have a lot of land, have building budgets to buy the equipment and are empty almost half the year. You know what I'm talking about don't you. Schools. Most schools have large areas of land, so they c

Once upon a land, in a time not so long ago, the people of the world were desperately searching for alternatives to the power of choice that fueled their society. You see they were using a renewable fuel; the problem was that they were depleting it faster than it could be reproduced. Their reserves were in low supply, and the future was looking bleak. The people had hunted their fuel almost to ext

Alternative Energy is the next speculative investment bubble waiting to happen. The industry will continue to grow over the next 10 years due to the early stage of technologies within the industry. Future demand and revenues are difficult to forecast making it a perfect candidate for mis-pricing.

Solar happens to be the most talked about concept of alternative energy. It is a concept that uses panels to collect all of heart from the sun and then it is converted into energy to help give you energy for your home, car, business, and even the future. You will want to make sure that you take solar power seriously and that you and all of the others get updated. It is the modern times and there are modern ways to approach things like energy. You will want to help the world by causing the energy sources to give off fewer pollutants and help preserve the Earth for future generations. By researching you will want to makes sure that you take solar power into consideration by doing all of the research and learning the advantages of this alternative fuel option.
You or others in your community more than likely use solar power without even realizing it. If you own a swimming pool, the solar cover you use to cover it when it is not in use is a form of solar energy. The solar covers will hel

Liberals have a way of telling people how they should live their lives for the betterment of the common good. However when it comes to these same liberals living the lifestyle they want us to lead that is another story. Speaking of another story, that leads me to this story.
Liberals, such as Ted Kennedy are constantly talking about alternative energies, about renewable energies. They are telling us we need to invest in these energies as a country to reduce our dependency on foreign oil. We could reduce our dependency on foreign oil by drilling for more domestic oil, but liberals like Ted Kennedy can’t have that.
We could put up wind-farms off shore, that sounds like a great idea to me. However I don’t live next to the ocean so the building of these farms will have no profound effect on my lifestyle. Do you know who does live on the ocean front where the wind-farms are supposed to be built? Ted Kennedy, who is for alternative, and renewable energy. So you would think
Grad students at MIT are wanting to harvest the energy produced from the walking of large crowds gathered at malls and other high traffic areas, to create an alternative energy source.
AutoBlog Green writes:
“they want to harness that energy by building in a generating system tied to the vibrations of the floor. As people move around the individual energy is small but when aggregated it could potentially produce a significant amount of power”
Novel green design idea and one that hopefully would propel Congress to create funding initiatives to support such newfound concepts in science and energy.

The current president of Brazil gets emotional very easily when dreaming of a future in which Brazil will lead the nations of a new world where clean energies will dominate. As usual, the reality is quite different. While you travel through Brazil, those of you with a keen sense of curiosity will wonder why the gigantic potential Brazil has for the production of clean energies is being wasted in such a shameful way.
Brasil has a total installed windpower capacity of 250WM. An amount dwarfed by the achievements of countries like Germany (18,415 WM) or Spain (11,615WM). The Centro Brasileiro de Energía Eólica has studied the characteristics of the winds blowing in the Northeast of Brazil. Its conclusion is that the potential for the commercial explotation of those winds is even better than that of the winds blowing in Europe. However, you can travel days and days through the Northeast and not come across a single wind turbine.
As for solar energy, an infinite source in the dry and po
Since I am interesting in cutting our dependence on foreign oil & global warming, I wanted to see what Judy Neville (New Canaan's First Selectwoman) and Jeb Walker (her opponent) had to say about alternative energy.

Chemists at UCLA Design the Least Dense Crystals Known to Man for Applications in Clean EnergyChemists at UCLA have designed new organic structures for the storage of voluminous amounts of gases for use in alternative energy technologies. The research, to be published on April 13 in the journal Science, demonstrates how the design principles of reticular chemistry have been used to create three-dimensional covalent organic frameworks, which are entirely constructed from strong covalent bonds and have high thermal stability,high surface areas and extremely low densities.The team of researchers comprises chemists from the Center for Reticular Chemistry at UCLA's California NanoSystems Institute and the departments of chemistry and biochemistry at UCLA. Led by Omar Yaghi, UCLA professor of chemistry and biochemistry, the team has developed a class of materials in which components can be changed nearly at will. Reticular chemistry, the brainchild of Yaghi, is the chemistry of linking mole

All of these technologies have some problems in common. The first is the intermittency and reliability of the sources.
