Everyone knows that they can find a good alternative source of power from wind turbines, solar panels and even magnet generator. But why is it that only a few people have any of these things installed in their homes or offices? The reasons are simple. Maybe, some of them don’t have the money to buy these. Bear in mind that …

The report includes new local climate projections for 10 national parks in California. With what the California Climate Change Center calls “medium-high” future emissions of heat-trapping gases, the average of six climate models is for Yosemite National Park to get 7.5 degrees hotter by 2070-2099 than it was in 1961-1990. That would be enough to make the national park 0.3degrees hotter than Sacramento historically has been.

Energy Star is a voluntary consumer information program intended to give customers details on the comparative energy conservation of specific products.

The idea of using vegetable oil as an alternate fuel source is as old as the diesel engine itself. Until recently, use of petroleum distillate to power diesel engines has been more economical than biodiesel. More: continued here

Research has uncovered a rather interest turn of events into the Global Warming Sage. And apparently complications have arisen along with the temperatures. You see Fuel Cells generate a lot of heat during the conversion process; nearly twice that of regular reciprocating engines. Solving the Nation’s problems with regards to pollution is a wise thing to do, yet if we …

California was one of the first states to enter the [tag-tec]nuclear power[/tag-tec] industry for energy production some 40 years ago. It was also one of the first to have huge debate over the [tag]nuclear[/tag] option which resulted in the shutdowns of several plants and a moratorium of nuclear power plant development in the state. Now there are signs that nuclear …

Talk about a ground swell. Bio diesel is getting noticed everywhere these days, of course it doesn't hurt to have a few famous people out trumping the cause. [the short list, sorry if I left anyone off- Willie Nelson, Daryl Hannah , Melissa Etheridge, Mandy Moore, Woody Harrelson, and more]
