Energy


So what are we going to do?

I voted today for the green party in the scottish elections. Why? i believe in proportional representation. That means if i vote green and others do too, we may have some green politicians raising green issues in the parliament. Is that important? Is anything more important, politically?

Its interesting to read about a project in spain using computer aligning mirrors to focus sun light on a steam turbine which generates power. A lot of power, for very little footprint. Read about it here. (image from the story).

Just imagine how much of Scotland you'd have to cover to produce the power for Glasgow :-o

I just wish we were so forward thinking here in the UK. We only had two party choices here, and neither of them have much in the way of green credentials :-(
