"You'll know the green revolution has been won when the word 'green' disappears."
- Thomas L. Friedman, 3x Pulitzer Prize Winner,
during his interview in the April '09 issue of
Newsweek Magazine
COMING SOON:
Stay tuned for lots of great upcoming content having to do with all things electric and awesome - from mainstream transportation to every kind of crazy off-the-wall type of alternative transportation and energy source imaginable.
In the midst of this terrible economic crisis, a new era is dawning, which prizes higher intellectual reflection, corporate and environmental responisbility, and social awareness. It has given US the resolve to push across the next Great Frontier - Energy Technology. Out of struggle rises greatness, as they say...
Therefore, it is my goal that this blog:
(1) be a fun, interesting testament to all the great technological advancements that are currently being made in these exciting times, whether they are electric cars, thin-film solar panels, home-made windmills or folding commuter bikes, and most importantly,
(2) call to the forefront of mainstream American social debate the real issues that need to be addressed NOW to create not only renewable, clean energy technologies, but ones which will be able to sustain exponential global population growth for the forseeable future.
The solutions are here NOW - will we make the most of them?
Also, please be patient - it's just me running this thing so it may take a few weeks for me to get posts up, but rest assured it will happen.
SUBMISSIONS:
My goal really is to make this a "RIB" (or, "Reader-Interactive Blog," a word I just made up ;), where all readers may feel free to not only comment, but blog here as well. So... in order to create the greatest pool of knowledge with respect to the subject matter, which we can all share, and simultaneously benefit from, I will keep my moderation to a minimum.
