Bio-Fuel.....
In January of this year,
at a meeting of the Engineers Club of Sun
City, Arizona, A.P.S. ( the local power
company) gave a presentation in which they
explained their plans to build such a plant
south of Phoenix
They were very upbeat about
it's possibilities.
If you watch this
video, pay
particular attention to the very

Talking Points on Climate Change

There's a lot of
action brewing on global warming in Washington
this spring, from the
EPA's move to regulate carbon dioxide and other
greenhouse gases to President Obama's push
for a clean energy policy that creates jobs and
boosts the economy.
But could you
succinctly explain what's happening to your
neighbor or co-worker? Or refute some of the
arguments of opposition groups?
Have no fear. We've got
talking points on global warming,
rebuttals to opponents of clean energy
legislation,
simple statements about the EPA endangerment
findings, and a Q
and A.
For example, did you know that according to a
study from the University of Massachusetts,
investments in wind and solar create 3 times
more jobs as the same investment in coal, and
similar investments in mass transit and
conservation would generate 4 times more jobs as
coal.
Find out more in
Talking Points: Curbing Carbon.
Because it's always easier to sound like you
know what you're talking about when you actually
do know.
