Daniel Kammen - Renewable Energy and Economies of Scale

Complete video at: http://fora.tv/fora/showthread.php?t=204

Daniel Kammen, Director of the Renewable and Appropriate Energy Laboratory at the University of California, Berkeley explains why renewable energy may take less time to see widespread incorporation than its critics have argued.

Cody's Books presents a panel featuring Mother Jones publisher Jay Harris, author Jeff Goodell, former Sierra club president Adam Werbach, director of the UC Berkeley Renewable and Appropriate Technology Energy Lab Daniel Kammen and Natural Resources Defense Council staff scientist Audrey Chang. They discuss American's reliance on coal, and debate what type of energy is best for our future: solar, wind -- or even nuclear? -- Cody's Books

Joe Biden claimed that the $862 Billion failed stimulus ($400 remains unspent) “created or saved” 750,000 jobs. Economists don’t recognize jobs saved, and the jobs saved may have been keep local agencies afloat. When the money ran out, the people lost their jobs. Currently States are considering filing bankruptcy for spending. watch?v=IqmeT5ykKf0

The Govt owns 61% of GM, GOOGLE, “GM's electric-car fantasy running out of gas” and read links.  The Green Movement should be free market driven

HELPING NATURE FOR BETTER CLIMATE

Use mighty power of nature

In the northwestern Australia, we have huge tides,

huge deserts, huge evaporation and huge dry rivers and lakes.

Huge 12m tidal erosion can revive old dry paleo dormant once mighty rivers, creeks and lakes,

desalinate the country and change deserts to rain forests to provide more rain across Australia

World population is growing rapidly and we need more energy, food, land and water.

Free energy technology exists!But the Establishment doesn't want ppl to know this,Get a motor that works with the power of magnets only at LT-MAGNET-MOTORdotCOM ,Be the revolution!

[fireofenergy]

Yes we can "scale them up"!!!

The world needs to invest in developing giant automated solar PV factories. Dirt cheap panels made by robotic arms = MORE INSTALL JOBS and solar exponentiation!

At the existing 35% solar PV growth rate, it be the #1 source of power in about 30 years (including extra 4X needed for storage). But this growth rate will not continue until solar PV is mass produce by robotic slaves! ! !

I invented a breakthrough energy source which violates the law of energy conservation. I have a PROOF that there are electrodynamic phenomena which violate the law of energy conservation. Making a 6 kW generator will cost $1200, value of the energy produced yearly $5400, zero operating costs. I am looking for $300 000 for a prototype and for $3M for patents.
