Trump Says Only ‘Fools’ See Good Relationship With Russia as Bad
Trump Says Only ‘Fools’ See Good Relationship With Russia as Bad
It reminds me of a lecture I went to in the 70s where I heard the late R. Buckminster Fuller proposed interconnecting regional power systems into a single continuous global electrical energy grid.
The Potential of an Electrical Interconnection Between Russia and North America - Winter-Spring 1992, Newsletter - Newsletters - Library - Index - Global Energy Network Institute - GENI is the highest priority objective of the World Game (R. Buckminster Fuller)
The simple concept was it is hard to "store" electricity and so utility companies have to generate basically the same amount of power at night as they do during the day and as such with most people not using electricity at night that power generating is truly wasteful.
Bucky's suggestion was during the day in the USA (night in Russia) Russia's interconnection with the USA power grid would send energy to the USA and vice - versa at night in the USA energy would be sent to Russia.
Three-fold benefit.
A) Obviously the fewer utility plants would be needed to meet growing demand in both countries..
B) Less energy being consumed , thus less pollution for the global warming crowd to crow about.
C) How in the hell would Russia or the USA ever contemplate nuke attacks on half the electricity generating
grid???
Made a lot of sense and this too is where possible Trump is thinking. Why not find common ground with
the Russians? After all there are 93 billionaires in Russia so there must be some compatibility with Trump!
There are now 2089 billionaires in the world: This is who they are, where they live – and how they made their fortunes
