Energy Bloggers: RENEWABLE ENERGY BONDS

  • Sherry · 11 months ago
    There could be no better investment in America than to invest in energy independence! This past year the high cost of fuel did serious damage to our economy and society. The trickle effects will be felt for years to come.The price of fuel affects every aspect of our economy from higher production and shipping costs to higher electric bills. Record numbers of jobs and homes were lost as a direct result. We are still reeling at the checkout lanes. We have spent billions in stimulus and bail outs. We need to bail America out of it's dependence on foreign oil. Create cheap clean energy, millions of badly needed green collar jobs and reduce our dependence on foreign oil. I just read the best book ever called The Manhattan Project of 2009 by Jeff Wilson. After a brief reprieve gas prices are on their way back up. OPEC has vowed to cut production until they achieve their desired 80-100. per barrel. It would cost the equivalent of 60 cents per gallon to charge and drive an electric car. The electricity to charge the car could come from solar or wind generated electricity. If all gasoline cars, trucks, and SUV's instead had plug-in electric drive trains, the amount of electricity needed to replace gasoline is about equal to the estimated wind energy potential of the state of North Dakota. Oil is finite. We are using it globally at the rate of 2 X faster than new oil is being discovered. India and China are expected to put 3 million more vehicles on their highways within the next 20 years. We have so much available to us , wind, solar, hybrid technology and bio fuels. We need to invest in America. We need to get on with becoming an energy independent nation. www.themanhattanprojectof2009.com

    He is married to the incomparable Grace Kelly (best in Too Catch a Thief (1955), Rear Window (1954) and Dial M for Murder (1954)). Kelly is certainly one of the most beautiful actresses that ‘graced’ the silver screen. She was in her prime in 1954. Her best nfcu movies (this not being one of them) were all made in 1954 and 1955.
