Why don’t we do what Germany does about energy?
In Germany about every 3rd house is covered with Solar Panels. The Germans passed a law that the bank has to offer a mortgage, a ten year mortgage, on installation of Solar Power — guaranteed by the government. If you put solar panels on your house, the power company has to buy the electricity back at 8 times market rate (about what it would cost if the power company was going to build a new nuclear reactor or a new coal-fired reactor).
More on that here:

@T — It’s new. Read the article. Thom just got back from there.
@Green Goblin — just as long as they shield the birds from them, yes.
@Hercule – Ding, ding, ding! That’s exactly why we’re not.
We need to all call our congresscritters and demand this. NOW. Pass it on!
… I heard Hartmann talking about that on the radio. Yes, that’s exactly what we should do. It would be a lot cheaper than invading Iraq and Afghanistan. We could have been miles ahead of where we are. Many countries are way ahead of us. It’s because our officials are all bought off by the oil companies.
Hartmann’s friend is making all his own electricity, plus the power company pays him $100/month. We should be doing that, and charging up our own electric cars. We need to cut our need for oil way down — save it for plastics.
