  • 20% renewable energy by 2020

    Posted by admin on February 7th, 2010 and filed under alternative energy sources | 25 Comments »

    Raising the share of renewable energy from 8.5% to 20% in the overall energy consumption is a necessary contribution to the global fight against climate change and towards better control over our energy dependence. The various uses of renewable energy are examined: electricity through wind and hydraulic energies; electricity or heat through geothermal and solar energies; electricity, heat, and biofuel coming from biomass. The EU is a world leader in the use and deployment of technologies that exploit renewable energy sources, providing over 350.000 jobs and an annual turn-over of € 30 billion.

      yeah, some reasons for having a hard time moving on coz there are who don’t want to, but this global issue needs everyone to work it out for better:-) …will die for protecting personal interest not for common and hope that could not be the reality, ….maybe will be trying to make a reality on the other way around….

      Lets not leave it up to them. Everybody has stake in this so that means we all have responsability. Anything will help. from reducing your own energy signature to writing politicians nonstop and tell them what you want to see happen. As much as they like to think they can ignore us if we all did it, thaey could never ignore us. We need to realize that the power is ours. Somewhere along the way they tricked us into handing it over.TAKE IT BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

      personally i think everyone is missing the piont the only fesable way forward is nuclear fusion if we do not achieve this within the next 50 to 100 years then we are screwed. There will be no chance that the human race will ever amount to anything if this does not happen.

      So stop wasting you time with stupid windmills and inefficient silcon wafers there like firing bbs at a frieght train

      Nuclear fusion could potentially supply the earth with electricity for millions to billions of years.
