9. Indeed we have to go with what we have...but, the transition should have

started sooner. Jimmy Carter had Solar Panels placed on Roof of the White House! How long ago was that? Reagan took them off. Someone posted on DU a few weeks back that Obama is going to place them back on the WH...along with pushing the Trans Canada Pipeline for dirty shale to come through US to be EXPORTED! Then there's the Fracking.

We have the whole Southwest where Solar Panels could be placed and run the Grid from there and pick up in other areas on the East Coast with Solar Panels on Roofs in all Industrial/Corporate Buildings.

I've not been so much interested in Wind...because of the destruction of views in in Areas and the Humming Sound which makes some sensitive people sick...plus the possible damage to birds who use "wind currents" as part of their navigation skills.

USA has so much Desert...and in places where we store Nukes and other "things" out in our Southwest. Put Solar there and find a way to get it to CA and Nevada and NM, Texas, Utah...whever you can get it. Invest in ramping up the storage and network for distribution. That and Roof Solar in Cities could be better than Fracking and Tar Sands. We could still find places we could buy oil from FAIRLY...if we didn't invade their countries to supplement what the Solar didn't provide.
