Suddenly an Obama Socialist Policy seems good for this type of action....

of course a corporation would have to get a contract for the US....gouging there.

needs some R+D. Anyone have some amazing solar companies to invest in?

the USA is huge, of course u guys have enough land to produce completely green energy

The UK has 1/6th of the population living in the volume of only 1 state and yet the majority of our country by space is countryside, even we have enough space to produce green energy

No they can't!!!!!. i live and own property in that orange square.

Build it in someone else's back yard.

The land in the Calif desert is not all waste land as many that live in other parts of the country think.

Most of the property that could be used for project like this are the little remaining desert public lands that the tree huggers have not turned into wilderness.

Most of the rest is privately owned and the tree hugger are trying to steal that and turn it into wilderness.

Someone really needs to have a talk with the tree hugger
on one hand they talk about saving the desert by turning it into wilderness areas and at the same time they talk about useing it for solar power.

That kind of schizoid thinking to me.
But many of us believed that treehugger were crazy all along

We need treehuggers because we need trees. Where are you going to get oxygen and clean air without trees. If you look at Brazil now they are cutting more and more trees and the weather is changing and not for the better either. Remember, we do not own land. We are just the costodians of it. We must take care of our planet or die. As for solar power, we can make, I am sure we already have it, better solar energy collectors so that we wouldn't have to take up so much land. There are so many inventions out there that can help us but it seems that some corporation is stopping it from being developed to its fullest. The corporations would lose money and as everyone knows money seems to rule at least for the forseeable future. Once that stops we can look forward to a better world. So lets go after these corporations that is stopping all this progress.

Next time they want to build a coal, oil, or nuclear plant they should take all that money and invest it in putting solar panels on people's roofs. They could rent the roof space from homeowners, and connect the panels into the grid instead of into the home in question.

I don't know, but with dual core solar panel inventions and the more recent ones, not to mention that these collectors could be on skyscraper tall buildings, as could greenhouses for food production, this doesn't really make sense.

Another point, is, considering that they just found a way to turn C02 into large amounts of fuel, why are they talking about energy problems. All they have ever had is energy SOLTUTIONS and now even better SOLUTIONS yet, they bury heads and pretend they didn't see that. Why?
