Wind power is a dud, I cannot believe environmentals support it, they are not good for the enviornment, effect weather, are killing off entire bat species and killing lots and lots of birds.

Window power is a no go.

I read somewhere that if we covered the entire state of Nevada in solar panels we could power the entire US pollution free, that is what I’d like to see us do.

Area 51 might have a problem with that.

“I read somewhere that if we covered the entire state of Nevada in solar panels we could power the entire US pollution free, that is what I’d like to see us do.”
Probably read that in a science fiction book.
Guess we could use candles at night. Or maybe whale oil lanterns? Wind and solar are BS. Solar as a supplement and remote monitoring stations. Nuke and natural gas all the way!!!!

—

It takes a 40 acre solar farm to supply one third the power of one average-sized coal-fired plant, and only on days with adequate sun.

You could cover the entire US and still not produce enough power to supply one day's needs in the US, but then everyone in the US would have to live underground, never emerging lest they cast a shadow and decrease the amount of power needed by everyone else. And there still would be rolling brown and black outs in that perfect Utopian world.

Casting a shadow would be a capital offense ...

So when the sun goes down in Nevada we just wait in the dark eating our ice cream before it melts? ;-)

Window power is a no go.

I would think so...

THIS PLUS PLUS

Does NOT equal this...
