It is very cool that the world is starting to sit up and notice that we need [tag-tec]alternative energy[/tag-tec] sources if we are to survive in this world. It is just shocking at times to see how quickly it is catching on. No really. I mean it. Maybe it is a California thing but I doubt that is entirely it as it would not be happening at this pace if it was only wacky folks in earthquake land that were into this stuff.

My mainstream newspaper that lands on my porch each day ( I know I should read it online and save a tree, but I am old school when it comes to the paper.

This newspaper has also been giving tons of space to energy issues such as [tag-tec]solar power[/tag-tec], biodiesel, ethanol, and even the controversy over [tag-ice]nuclear power[/tag-ice] plants in California.

Next week it will probably be the local TV stations that suddenly have become green or alternative energy aware. That is how the mainstream media do it. They run in tight little packs that feed off each other. But if it ends up helping bring the word to the world that is fine with me. OK now go turn off that light in the kitchen and save some energy.

People all over the world and especially in America are dreaming of a green world where there will be only solar power energizing the needs of the entire country. Experts feel that in five years, solar power will be cheap enough to compete with conventional electricity, even in UK, Africa, Australia and India. If that is the case more and more people will use solar energy in their homes. In a decade, the cost may have fallen so dramatically that solar cells could undercut oil, gas and coal. Technology is leaping ahead towards eco friendly, pollution free and a green future with the advent of solar energy homes.
