If you’re a Washington D.C. resident, businesses, or nonprofit in the market to install solar panels you might just be shopping at the right time.

Although we have already decided to buy a solar air heater, it has become very clear that in the world of renewable energy, you can never be too informed. To that end, and during my research into tax incentives and federal and state rebates, I scheduled an energy efficiency audit. The waiting list was long, and apparently we were lucky to have our guy arrive within six weeks of my scheduling the appointment. In Massachusetts, the energy audit is actually the gateway to 0% interest loans to rep

I’ve just returned from the Winter AUSA Symposium in Fort Lauderdale, FL. The symposium is mainly a vendor-to-vendor conference designed to demonstrate the cutting edge of military technology. While there were major military representatives present to take an interest in the wares, for the most part this was a display of our country’s resourcefulness, innovation, and might. Walking more than 40 miles through the entire week of the conference, I had an opportunity to check out many of the new

B obby Jindal, governor of Louisiana, has been hailed the new great Republican Hope–the young, unorthodox, charismatic politician whose star is rising quickly, and who might repopularize this failing party. Since his response to Obama’s State of the Union address on Tuesday, many have commented on how he is the Republican version of our beloved hopemonger. But the Obama/Jindal comparison is a bit more eerie. Rather than a simple response to or imitation of Obama, I have reason to believ

CARPE DIEM? 1. Is Obama taking on WAY too much or is this indeed the time to seize the day? Progressives who were nervous about whether Obama would honor his campaign promises should be breathing a sigh of relief after Obama’s national address on Feb 24, 2009. Obama announced his goals of reforming healthcare, supporting renewable energy, investment in education, and even overhauling Social Security! Now the battle begins not just with the Republicans but within the Democratic Party a

Yes, it’s me again, and I’ve got a whole whack of new things to talk about. But, their won’t be as much ranting this time, I promise. (Be forewarned, you can never trust teenagers) I’m going to try to focus on CO2 emissions and the incinerator being built in Courtice in this blog. CO2 emissions are the biggest problem that we are facing, no doubt about it. But, there are a few things we can do to cut more than half of our emissions. If everyone bought an electric car or a hybrid, the transpo

Biden spoke “We all know that the existing electrical grid today is inadequate, insufficient and outdated. For example, of all the wind power that we’re talking about being able to create in the Mid
