Hello,

I would like to compare the costs of the energy costs of the fuels we use today (non renewable) to the current cost of green energy (solar wind water etc). What is the best way to do this?

The internal combustion engine keeps us linked with Saudi Arabia. So, why do anything to oppose getting off of gasoline. There is no way that domestic sources, even drilling everywhere we can, would be able to sustain U.S. energy needs for the next 20 years.

Let’s break the addiction now.

I was asked to do a report for Science on this question.

I dont understand the “Green Energy Production” part of that question… if you can tell me what you think it means, and find a website that is answering this question in some way, it’d be a huge help.

Audi Princess asked:


I am a marketing consultant with a energy company that has a Certified Green Plan provides electricity service that’s Green-e certified to reduce the environmental impact of the energy you use. This product is available in Texas and New York.

I really want to advertise on the internet where I can spread the word on our renewable energy product. The environment is so important to me and our company and I just want to get the word out on how people can contribute in a small way to help save our planet.

A Wind blows across a hill, has done since time inmomorial, that wind is part of the global weather system, so someone comes along and builds a wind farm on the hill, most of the energy is removed from the wind, what effect does that have on the global weather system?
Wave power, many years ago it was demonstrated that wave farms caused or increased costal erosion at a point some distance from the “farm”.
Geothermal, taking heat from the earths crust, what will be the long term effect of this accelerated cooling?
Solar, the production cost of photovoltaic cells has been questioned elswhere but what about heat extraction. placing large solar powered boilers in the desert may seem like a good idea but what are the effects on the flora, fauna and geology of removing that heat source?
maybe the sun will go out before the effects are apreciable but has anyone ever done any reasearch in to the down side of “green” energy?

Joanne M asked:


China seems to have the insight into seeing that green energy is the wave of the future and will ultimately will be more cost effective than relying on the world dwindling non-renewable resources. Will this set a dramatic new precedent for the USA, who has been dragging its feet?
