Would guards work on those fans? It'd be nice for the birds.

Wind and Solar are the future. Oil is done !

[fxchamp]

This documentary has some wrong facts. Solar energy is getting cheaper and cheaper each year. The same with any other technology, the more you mass produce it the cheaper it gets. In germany the price per watt installed on a home has come down to less than $4.00. In Canada the price per watt is high at about $7.00 cdn. That's because germany has about 16 Giga watts installed and canada only about 1 Giga watt installed. The truth is the oil comany CEO's and politicians dont want change in USA

couldn't care less for stupid birds smashing to pulp. They'll adapt. If Holland in the 1700's had made a fuss about stupid birds against their windmills, would they been able to build their huge economic empire? America wouldn't have been "bought" from the native peoples..hence..No America as we know it would exist .

Hmmm..on second thought, I wish Holland had stunted their successful early industries ran by Windmill-Power.. Would have saved the Indidgenous people a whole lot of grief..

Those birds dumb enough to get hit by wind turbine blades are only days from being eaten by predators.

"God bless America - holy feck, we're going down !"

[cyclenut]

Wow, for the last few years I have not used oil for transportation. The two facts are 1. I live local 2. I ride my bicycle

Only problem is no big corprations make money off it. : (

I just have to put up with crazy lazy americans in ther cars.

Bin Laden Land is what I am going to call it from now on.

[smrio]

Our congress needs to wake up or get out of the way and deal with this problem head on. Fuck all those petty laws their dealing with now. And YEAH MAYBE the U.S. needs to get fucked on high oil costs so those dickheads in congress can smell what their shovelin.

[mariojragucci]

Not a peep about bicycles (tsk!)

[uabuab]

OMG..I Miss Red China already

[Metalgear55]

Stupid jews!!! Osama bin laden land?!!

He is not even welcomed in saudi, because he is a terrorist!!

Why do you think that terrorist hate the saudi governmant?!!

[vp16]

Bin Laden land? So that's what the middle east is called,after over 70 years of feeding the world the oil which it oh-so craves to become a super power,they get branded as Bin Laden land. I wish the Sheikhs at the top would one day cut off all the supple of oil to north america,and see the devastating consequences it would have on the people's perfect way of life.

[giraffecatcher]

You fool!....Don't wish too hard, it might just come true. and the ramifications will be worldwide, not just isolated to north america!

[newdad1107]

I wish they would too. Kind of speed things up you know. At the rate things are going in 50 years Saudis will be back to selling rugs for 50 cents while those Sheikhs you spoke of abandon thier country and take thier money elsewhere.

"After every major terrorist incident the excuse makers come out to tell us why imperialism, Zionism, colonialism or Iraq explains why the terrorists acted. These excuse makers are just one notch less despicable than the terrorists and also deserve to be exposed. Every quarter the State Department should identify the top 10 hate mongers, excuse makers and truth tellers in the world." - Thomas Friedman, the "good cop" of the New World Order

great series - it's wonderful to have shows available even without having t.v.
