Fossil Fuel Free In Ten Years

[glockmail]

Nice house of cards resaoning.

Fossil fuel generation is more expensive than wind right now. It is true we will need investment in transmission lines, but once we have them we are free from having to buy oil or coal or whatever it is the multi national corps want to sell us.

What part of free energy don't you get?

Prove it.

Stop talking about my head like that---the pms are going to start coming in like I was Mani or something !

That's when you keep your foot on both the gas and the brake while tooling down the highway in your hybrid to charge up the batteries. No shit I actually had a guy argue that once.

There are in fact systems which capture the braking energy of the vehicle and convert it to electricity to re-charge the battery. The systems increase the range of the vehicle but they can't capture more energy than was originally expended and so the vehicle will still need to be plugged in.

how are we all going to have our 10 bottles of water every day without oil? guess where plastics come from?

Who said we weren't going to have oil?

We're just going to stop burning it for energy.

The fact that plastics as well as fertilizers and chemicals are made from oil is another important reason for moving away from fossil fuels, oil is too valuable a resource to burn it all up as fuel.

Duh you read as poorly as you write.

The most important industry of the 21st century will be alternative energy. We can be a leader in that industy if we elect a Democrat. If we elect a Republican, we will hooked on oil forever.

Sure troll, that's the reason you keep ignoring the fact that Republicans have introduced legislation that would develop alternatives as well as drilling more.

Yes, the Republicans are well known for promoting alternative energy legislation....

Braindead troll I have already showed you the piece of legislation they have proposed, that Pelosi is blocking....

Do you need to see it again?

No, trolls are people who insult other people by calling them trolls.

Republicans are in the pocket of Big Oil. That is why they are promoting drilling over conservation. Drilling makes money for their masters. Conservation costs their masters money. That is why when Bush was asked about conservation, he couldn't even bring himself to say the word.

No trolls are people who obviously ignore facts to insult basic thinking skills. The facts are House Republicans have introduced a comprehensive, common sense energy plan that includes alternative energy and new drilling which Pelosi has blocked to "save her planet" and her special interests(environmentalist wackos).

Yes, everyone who if for alternative energy is an "enviromental wacko."

No everyone who blocks drilling that has, the safest track record in the world to the environment, is an environmental wacko. Drilling that would help reduce our dependacy on foreign oil. Drilling that would help reduce the over 700 billion dollars we send to hostile governments. Drilling that would bridge our transition to alternative energy sources.

I'm all for drilling.

But for the last eight years the Republicans have ignored energy conservation and alternative energy. A few years ago a reporter asked one of Bush's press secretarys about energy conservation. He MOCKED HIM. I never forgot that.

We waste an enormous amount of energy. We can solve this problem, but it won't be the Republicans, and their corporate masters that do it.

Lets not change the subject here Kirk, what is wrong with the comprehensive energy plan that House Republicans have proposed that Pelosi has blocked?

Okay so where are we going to put 66,000 square miles of wind tubines? And btw assuming you're for this also assumes that you don't really care about the wildlife habitat you would need to destroy to do it.

The USA lower 48 states have 3,000,000+ square miles of land.

Now I am NOT saying that wind turbines are the final solution, but suggesting that we don't have room enough for them is just nuts.
