WorldChanging: Another World Is Here: Alternative Energy Blog's James is WorldChanging

WorldChanging: Another World Is Here: Alternative Energy Blog's James is WorldChanging The idea of combining wind and wave energy harvesting: "One of the criticisms of renewable energy is that most sources do not produce significant amounts of electricity. If we are to replace fossil fuels that means thinking in gigawatts and not megawatts (1 gigawatt = 1,000 megawatts).



It is by utilising different technologies and put them to work on a large scale that we can generate significant quantities of "green" electricity"



Does miss one thing though; it's very much in the paradigm of "generate big and distribute" and that's fine. But we need to encourage a huge increase in the paradigm "distributed generation adds up to big".

"Spend and tax" not "tax and spend"

 I got a response from my MP which got me kind of mad. You'll see why as I reproduce it here. Apologies for the strange changes in types...
