What form of alternative energy should be developed to solve the energy problems that we face today and could possibly face in the future? Thank You.

Obviously, we can’t rely on fossil fuels anymore. *Please no links. If you’re a die-hard Obama supporter, then please provide me with a one or two sentence summary of his alternative energy plan. Thanx Danny Boy. This is what he proposes, from his website: "Require 25 Percent of Renewable Electricity by 2025: Obama will establish [...]

How can you prove/What evidence is there to support the fact that we are capable of sustaining economic growth and prosperity while switching to alternative energy sources, even in light of this economic crisis? Yes. You will be burning furniture to keep warm when you’re living in a tent in a government homeless camp. powered [...]
