Charles asks…

What are Barack Obama’s ideas for an alternative energy source?

Ok, so I want to kow what Obama thinks we should use as an alternative energy source instead of burning fossil fules. I realize he wants to minimize the use of fossil fules but what does he think we should use instead?

The Expert answers:

Federal Reserve Notes.

There will be so many of them when he gets through that that’s all they’ll be good for.

Donna asks…

What will it take for Americans to realize that we need to work even harder to find alternative energy?

It takes a war for oil, sending our troops to die for oil, gas prices skyrocketing, proposing to drill and destroy Alaska (one of the most beautiful places in the U.S. who’s ecosystem is already suffering from warming due to using gas), global warming and middle eastern powers and terrorists having something we need from them….all these things we do for oil. Isn’t it time we wake up? We need to work harder to find alternative energy!

The Expert answers:

The oil money has bought the media that is backing Obama so that is why he will not drill and why his alternative energy cannot pan out.
If you want alternative energy which we need in order to be a free country vote for McCain.
Are you kidding McCain will drill and go for alternatives if for no other reason than what has been spent by the Arabs on this election for Obama
BTW Palin can see Russia and I wish you could too
Russia may be able to usurp Saudi Arabia’s role as a primary supplier to the U.S. Market.

However we still need alternatives because we will soon be ratifying the Kyoto Protocol.
But Obama will not let us do that because his backers think America is a capitalist imperialist pig, they are hard core Islamic Arab Oil interests.

Chris asks…

Should we start looking for an alternative energy source in this decade?

If so, what do you think is the best source of alternative energy?

The Expert answers:

We should have started decades AGO. Some people think it’s already too late.

For one thing, finding anything that is capable of providing the same amount of energy as easily as petroleum … Is doubtful at best.

Additionally, the only way we’re going to make these discoveries is if we make them BEFORE we run out of oil.

Remember, oil is not just for energy. Most everything we use is made by using oil … Like plastics.

Best source: solar. We should all have solar cells on our roofs, provided by the federal government.

Robert asks…

alternative energy. I want to be informed, where do I start?

I want to be a supporter for the alternative energy movement but not sure where to start. There are a few sites I came across myself but instead they use the subject to promote political means. Is there a site or book or something that can give me the facts as a beginner?

What are some good podcasts, YouTube channels, twitter/Facebook pages and other medusa? I want to be as immersed and informed as possible. Local resources where I live are a joke, which is why I ask for those above. Thanks

The Expert answers:

Really the best thing you could do is take an environmental science class at a junior college. Dont take anything specific, such as strictly renewable energy sources and derivatives.

But my local community college has a green living course which teaches you things about water conservation etc.

What would you like to learn? I took an advanced environmental science class and it was more about things such as how harmful mining is and carbon emissions etc.

One fact i still remember from that class is, if we all started converting to living 100% green it would take 70 years for everyone to be green and for it to take full effect.

But yeah id recommend taking a college course or something of the sort instead of relying on online information as it is backed up with sources. Glad to see someone wanting to look into it though.

Really the best thing we can do for the environment is educate the people that are unaware of the harm they are doing to the environment, you dont have to become a hippy, but become aware of what you are doing
