  2. Exactly where is that and can you provide proof

  3.  @macusaurelius1313  Sounds like the issue is with the crooks in your local government not green energy

  5.  @macusaurelius1313  By the way. Hillsdale County has been solidly republican since the 1800s....but nice try

  7. Other countries are going green with no problem so why are we still holding on to 20 century energy...

  9.  @coachduke9323  Research....what a concept...France gets around 20% of its electricity from renewable sources – 8% from wind energy, but it needs more to meet its climate goals while reinforcing energy security. The war in Ukraine and disruptions in its conventional electricity generation fleet are putting France’s energy system under stress. The French Government is taking unprecedented steps to maximise renewable electricity generation as part of the solution. Wind energy is available locally and doesn’t need to be imported from other countries. It’s competitive and doesn’t depend on the market price of fossil fuels. And it saves money to Governments and consumers. Wind energy will contribute €8bn to France’s State revenue in 2022-23: under Government-backed Contracts for Difference (CfDs) project developers pay Governments the difference between the State-guaranteed purchase price of electricity and the wholesale electricity market price, which is currently very high due to the war in Ukraine. As more wind energy continues to be deployed, savings will increase.

  10.  @coachduke9323  Some countries have figured it out...Iceland is a country running on 100% renewable energy. It gets 75% of the electricity from hydropower, and 25% from geothermal. The country then takes advantage of its volcanic activity to access geothermal energy, with 87% of its hot water and heating coming from this source. Despite renewables been better for the environment, this isn’t what originally motivated Iceland to make the switch to green in the 1970s. According to Halla Hrund Logadóttir, of the UN Chronicle, Iceland, which was still classed as a developing country at the time, could not sustain oil price fluctuations – It required a stable and economically feasible domestic energy resource for its isolated location on the edge of the Arctic Circle. Since Iceland is isolated from the rest of Europe, it made the importation of oil expensive, so by generating their own energy it made perfect sense as it meant that they could come self-sufficient. The switchover meant the country now has cleaner air due to utilizing renewable sources rather than fossil fuels. Iceland’s plans for the future include banning the sale of new petrol and diesel cars by 2030.

  11. Some cities in the US even get it.... Rock Port, Missouri is a tiny town the north-west of the U.S with a population of just 1,300. The town is located just in the right place to receive some of the nation’s best wind resources. With Rock Port making the most of its location, it runs entirely off of wind power. The wind farm is a private-public partnership, with the well-known company John Deere joining forces with local entrepreneurs and town leaders to create the Wind Capital Group. They have 4 wind turbines which are connected to the grid and they provide about 125% of the towns energy needs, meaning that they can sell any unused power. “We’re farming the wind, which is something that we have a lot of up here. The payback on a per-acre basis is generally quite good when compared to a lot of other crops, and it’s as simple as getting a cup of coffee and watching the blades spin”, said Jim Crawford, a natural resource engineer at the University of Missouri Extension in Columbia. “Anybody who is currently using Rock Port utilities can expect no increase in rates for the next 15 to 20 years,” Crawford said. Jerry Baker, an MU Extension community development specialist, added that the turbines could also increase tourist attraction to the area. For a town which is quite a drive from any major cities, the potential of bringing a bit of tourism to the area would be a good little boost for their local economy, without them needed to do much more than just have a cup of coffee, according to Jim Crawford, and with the town located on the road down to Kansas City, it makes it accessible for the tourists to stop off at. Rock Ports wind farm is a good example to small towns that it is easy to generate a lot of their power from a renewable source that works for them.

  12.  @coachduke9323  It's all about research son..Costa Rica is quickly reaching its target of becoming carbon neutral this year, with 99.62% of the country’s electricity coming from renewables in 2019. Geographically speaking, Costa Rica is in a good spot – it has an abundance of free-flowing water. The water generates more than 78% of the country’s electricity, with the remainder made up through wind turbines, geothermal energy, and solar. Costa Rica is often the victim of hurricanes and tropical storms as well as having the risk in which a large number of volcanoes involves. According to The Costa Rican News, during the passage of the tropical storm “Nate” in October 2017, the country managed to maintain its electricity supply through the use of renewable sources. It could even help its neighbouring countries by exporting energy to the Regional Electricity Market (MER). This meant that homes didn’t go without power in what can be a frightening and destructive time. The fact that they could also share energy with neighbouring countries in times of disaster is good news, as not only Costa Rica is reaping the rewards of their renewable energy supplies...

  13.  @LisaRL70  You need to get out more because Obama care gave millions of Americans access to healthcare....next time do some research

  15.  @rross27  Carbon dioxide concentrations are rising mostly because of the fossil fuels that people are burning for energy. Fossil fuels like coal and oil contain carbon that plants pulled out of the atmosphere through photosynthesis over many millions of years; we are returning that carbon to the atmosphere in just a few hundred. Since the middle of the 20th century, annual emissions from burning fossil fuels have increased every decade, from an average of 3 billion tons of carbon (11 billion tons of carbon dioxide) a year in the 1960s to 9.5 billion tons of carbon (35 billion tons of carbon dioxide) per year in the 2010s, according to the Global Carbon Update 2021. Carbon cycle experts estimate that natural “sinks”—processes that remove carbon from the atmosphere—on land and in the ocean absorbed the equivalent of about half of the carbon dioxide we emitted each year in the 2011-2020 decade. Because we put more carbon dioxide into the atmosphere than natural processes can remove, the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere increases every year....got it son
