A Little Humor, Please, Along with the News July 13, 2010
I got a chuckle out of this Graphic on The Onion, of highlights on the New Energy Bill. It helped break up another serious news day for alternative and traditional energy.
The last article in the Energy Policy section is the most interesting to me. Why isn't the Department of Energy using any resources to improve the basic technology of electricity production? Having read Natural Capitalism, by Paul Hawken, Amory Lovins and L. Hunter Lovins, I understand that re-engineering of processes lead to the highest return, typically at much lower cost.
