No more false faces. No more excuses.
This is an American Comeback Story.
We are those that 'can do' and 'have' it all.
No looking back. This is the future we are promised as Americans. This is the country we want. Morally 'on track' with every promise for the world that they are promised with leadership that knows the truth and acts on it.
We need leadership that can deliver us from the past and give us the world we and all societies deserve.
America.
It's Back !
The future is coming. All so far is what we can do now.
The Fusion Reactor
Fusion Reactors: Magnetic Confinement
The technology available can solve any tropospheric safety issues. The USA can do it all by itself. We can return to moral leadership globally in a way to envy every ally we have with a vibrant self created economy to raise the bar of success and a definition of a successful, sophisticated society that much higher.
There are projects that want to rival 'the sun' for it's processes.
France gets nuclear fusion plant
France will get to host the project to build a 10bn-euro (£6.6bn) nuclear fusion reactor, in the face of strong competition from Japan.
The International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (Iter) will be the most expensive joint scientific project after the International Space Station.
Cadarache, France
The European candidate for the Iter site is situated inland from Marseille on the Mediterranean coast.
The Cadarache facility is operated by France's Atomic Energy Commission.
It is already the site of extensive fusion research, including the Tore Supra tokomak experiment.
Hundreds of jobs will be created if it is selected.
There are all kinds of solar projects. Successful solar projects.
Korea to build world's biggest solar power station
GWANGJU - The world's largest solar power station will be built in South Korea by 2006, a provincial government announced.
Representatives from Sun Power & Geothermal Energy Co, a solar systems design company from the United States, and Sharp Electronics Corp of Japan came to South Korea to map out the final details of the construction of the station in the coastal county of Sinan, some 420 kilometers southwest of Seoul, South Jeolla province government officials said.
Construction of the 15-megawatt solar power station will begin next February for completion in October 2006, it added.
"South Jeolla province is a blessed region, which receives the largest amount of solar radiation in the country," Park Joon-young, South Jeolla province governor, said. "The Sinan station will be the world's largest."
Sun Power will design and install the solar power systems, while Sharp will supply the cells needed to generate solar energy, the regional government said.
A total of 12 companies are seeking to establish solar power stations in the province to produce a combined 37 megawatts of solar energy.

High Speed Magnetic Rail - These trains run best on elevated rail to allow traffic underneath and safe
The principal of a Magnet train is that floats on a magnetic field and is propelled by a linear induction motor. They follow guidance tracks with magnets. These trains are often refered to as Magnetically Levitated trains which is abbreviated to MagLev. Although maglevs don't use steel wheel on steel rail usually associated with trains, the dictionary definition of a train is a long line of vehicles travelling in the same direction - it is a train.
The biggest complaint about these gorgeous giants is noise.
Noise?
Did I hear a heater come on in the house today? Ah, yeah. What kinda noise we talking about.
By the way to understand the 'size' of these babies, that is a boat in the water. This is a stationary wind farm. There are others that float to divert any aspect of interference with marine life. Additionally, birds tend to be smart. They avoid these large power plants. Additionally, they can be put out of major flyways for migrating birds while adhering to all protection laws.
Get that feel good feeling yet? I have.
Nearly every First World country has harnessed this form of power. Hello, America.
Genesis Studies Wind Farms In Kentucky, Virginia And West Virginia
in News Departments > FYI
by NAW Staff on Friday 02 February 2007
Genesis Development of Kentucky LLC, an Elkhorn City, Ky.-based firm that was recently founded, is conducting site testing in Kentucky, Virginia and West Virginia for potential wind farms.
The company will conduct wind assessment studies lasting six months to a year to determine the best location to build a wind farm, says Scott Sykes, Genesis Development's president. He adds that the company is expecting to construct several wind farms in the long run - the first would have a capacity of about 100 MW.
According to the American Wind Energy Association, there are currently no wind farms in Kentucky or Virginia. Skyes says because of the lack of wind projects in the area, residents may be skeptical. Therefore, Genesis Development is open to questions and comments while the study is taking place and plans on conducting public forums early in the developmental process once a site is chosen.
Hybrid Technologies To Unveil $125,000 Electric Car
The Electric Car already exists. We don't have to wait for the 'hydrogen fuel cell.' What the Electric Car needs are production plants and a client base. We already where the client base is and that it is eager for it's arrival. We now have to build plants for mass production.
In the meantime, there is ethanol to transform a lagging economy mired in fossil fuel use. The new standards for carbon dioxide emissions coming out of California are important but they are still old world. It's time to get out of the sandbox on the future and make it work !
Good-bye GM, Ford and Lexus. Babe, we are taking over and not settling for less. Elections and getting out the vote has never been more important.
The quest for the electric car
I heard about an electric car being made by a company called Tesla Motors. They claim their car is capable of a four second 0 to 60, something any car enthusiast salivates over.
Tesla Motors is an American company who is trying to turn a page in history concerning electric vehicles.
The estimates I found on the cost of their Roadster were in the range of $100,000. But hey, it’s a pretty sweet ride. The car certainly looks like 100 grand.
In case you’re wondering, the only notable electric car in automotive history was the EV1 from General Motors.
GM didn’t go down as the tree hugger’s superhero as eventually they killed the project, and crushed all the models that didn’t end up in a museum somewhere.
Americans didn’t find EV1appealing for many reasons, but mainly its range was only 150 miles. Maybe they crushed them because they were such an embarrassment to car-kind.
If you want to own an electric car someday, hope that General Motors’ recently unveiled “flex-electric” Chevrolet Volt will be firstly affordable, and secondly, produced.
OUT WITH THE OLD and in with THE NEW. We want it. Gotta have it.
Where will the new, exciting and vibrant economy of the USA come from?
One of the basis of a carbon dioxide free emission society stands with harnessing the power of computers.
When I was faced with adversity in my life, someone once said 'When given lemons, make lemonaid.' It's time America did exactly that.
The Bush White House has raped this country of it's economy and treasury to kill and destroy rather than build on a methodology of peace and diplomacy. It has also outsourced jobs and have literally committed jihad against unions.
None of these transporation or enegy solutions are in their infancy. They all have a long history of known sucesses. We just need to go there. Bravely, unafraid and determined. In order to achieve such high moral goals that will protect Earth forever, we need to continue to 'weed out' elected represenatives that do not serve the interests of the young of the USA seeking a happier and guaranteed safer life than was ever before afforded any American.
This is a call to arms. But. A different kind of arms. We, as a nation, are laying down our weapons and picking up the future to embrace it in a very affirmation of success while returning to being the nation of 'example' and 'wealth' to the rest of the world. It is our moral destiny and moral right to recapture our profound purpose in life and come to the forefront of environmental leadership. Taking example from few but setting 'the standard' and reaping the rewards that come with being the world's leader in tropospheric safety for all generations to come.
Hydroelectric Power
This is a no brainer. It's one of Earth's most abundant resources. Water. Hydroelectric power was not at all a far cry from innovation when it was once simply a paddle wheel in a fast flowing stream harnessed for grinding grain. When power was connected with the ability to produce electricity there was literally 'light.'
The delicate aspect of hydroelectric is the very aspect that makes it a great form of energy. The water. If we wait too long, the water on this planet will not be as available to us, although that seems a fantasy now, with noted and considerable flooding hardship from flooding.
Rain is abundant in some areas of the world and therefore there is little to worry about with this energy source, but, with continued heating rains may stop at some time and the headwaters to great rivers will begin to dwindle.
Britain has long been a leader in combatting Human Induced Global Warming
This graph clearly illustrates the use of coal and it's significant contribution to Human Induced Global Warming. Coal was among the earliest fuels harnessed at the beginning of the Industrial Revolution. It is odd to realize we have come so far in technology yet we are still holding onto antiquated ways of producing energy. The 'idea' that coal can somehow replace oil as an energy source is grossly incorrect.
To complete some other views from the UK:

CO2 Emissions Calculator
http://www.nef.org.uk/energyadvice/co2calculator.htm
Bear in mind that around half UK CO2 emissions come from industry and commerce, supporting our everyday lifestyle. So if your personal profile comes out below about 3,000 kg CO2 (3 tonnes), you are doing reasonably well by UK standards, but would still need to do more to be a good global citizen!

THE United Kingdom is far ahead of the USA in providing guidance on Carbon Dioxide Emissions to find again the tropospheric balance of the gaseous Earth. The United States of America has a far higher calling. It needs to remove carbon dioxide from any form of emission.
Why?
The USA is the largest contributor of carbon dioxide emission on Earth. A full 25% of the CO2 emissions that are causing hardship to Earth's biota including the citizens of all countries of the world is assigned to the USA. The USA alone can completely reverse the deadly trend of Human Induced Global Warming.
The United States of America can completely stop the trend and reverse it when it applies the proud and high reaching morality of controlling Earth's tropospheric gases to benefit all to Earth's life.
We can do this. It's simple. The mechanisms are already in place. It requires a dedicated and benevolent government in Washington, DC. Many states already are fighting the 'good fight' while the others lack vision and impulsion.
I promise you, we can do this. From now on, the USA has control over the well being of Earth. We should INVITE all other countries to join us, but, in all honesty the citizens of the USA are unlike all others. When we harness our collective will we can move a plant back to it's healthy balance.
