You said it, brother.
While generating electricity with sunlight or wind is great, electricity is expensive and difficult to capture and store. Here are some scientists who are developing efficient ways of converting this energy into something we can much more easily store - like hydrocarbons, or better, hydrogen itself.
The last image this photographer was able to capture before his death.
Sickness and contamination from the oil spill that has killed the Gulf of Mexico continues with little abatement. Corporate media continues to ignore this issue completely, as do the courts.
We are going to have literally millions of people sickening and dying on the Gulf coast. The inactivity of the government to punish the oil industry for what it has done is absolutely disgusting.
Researchers have discovered that graphene, that wonder nano-material, can actually generate electricity when struck by sunlight. What can it not do?
Scientists in Illinois have developed a process to convert CO2 and biomass into fuel. While this is a good solution to our problem of importing oil, it doesn't move us away from burning fuel for energy in general.
Teaser trailer for the talented Devi Snively's high school horror comedy Paige and Hadley's Prom From Hell. Devi is one of the most creative young directors making witty, low-budget horror stuff, and this will be a great movie.
IMF advisor Dr. Robert Shapiro spells it out in no uncertain terms - European sovereign debt crisis and a collapse of the banking system by Halloween if governments don't act to do anything about it.
How's this for a butt-kicker? The assholes at the Federal Government, unable to prevent states from passing medical marijuana laws on their own, have decided that medical marijuana dispensaries are still subject to taxation as organized crime (yes, there is a tax code for them, if you can believe it). Needless to say, this tax code would put every dispensary in the country out of business.
There is no reason to do this aside from the government's willful attempts to destroy these businesses. It's a disgrace.
Sharif thinks it's not kosher.
Iceland refused to bail out its banks and let them go under. Iceland immediately comes out of a depression.
Hmmm...could these things be interrelated?
Oh great. Going down on chicks can give you human papilloma virus, which in men can mean neck and head cancer. I need to head down and get a vaccination, but it's probably too late.
However this does give those guys that don't like the practice an out..
DNA evidence in Texas has freed a man convicted of killing his wife. He had been imprisoned for the crime for 25 years.
Texans are outraged. He should have been executed long ago.
On a less serious note, some decidedly unfortunate ad placements.
Or fortunate, depending on your point of view.
What's the most expensive form of energy? Solar, wind, nuclear, tidal?
Well, if you add in the cost of environmental remediation and the damage caused by climate change, coal leaves them all in the proverbial dust.
Boeing plans to install solar panels on 10 acres of roof space they have at their South Carolina facility, producing up to 2.6 megawatts of power. In addition, it will keep the facility, which produces the 787 Dreamliner, cooler in summer and warmer in winter.
More fun stuff for a lazy Saturday evening - changes in the climate mean that many of the world's dams will no longer be facing the flows of water that they were designed for.
