An Amazing Update

Here we are in March 2014...180 degree flip-flop from just a few years ago, and the price of solar will continue to come down; while the price of nuclear will continue to go up...and add to that the recognition of all the huge associated costs with decommissioning, waste disposal, etc., etc.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 

 

Solar at less than 5cents/kwh

Just think...if WE really wanted to, we could NOW create so many jobs, build up our renewables industries, march forward with new ideas and innovations, lessen our dependence on oil and gas (domestic or imported), and more rapidly approach the sustainable, cost effective, and environmentally clean energy world we will eventually have.  Follow the money!
