How Solar Energy

Misty Said:

What are the democratic and republican views on solar energy?

We Answered:

In reality - Solar Farms are not practical or cost effective - YET!
They need to be subsidized by government. Solar panels only have a 10-20 year life.
When solar panels go below the 8 cent per watt cost - then they will be more cost effective.

Some Democrats don't want their development or wind Farms.

"AMBOY, Calif. — Senator Dianne Feinstein introduced legislation in Congress on Monday to protect a million acres of the Mojave Desert in California by scuttling some 13 big solar plants and wind farms planned for the region." - - Plus the Kennedy's stopped a wind farm in Massachusetts.

How can i help improve the solar energy community?

We Answered:

Learn about something first hand, such as building a solar cooker, then you can share your knowledge with the community. I believe there's a site called solarcooking.org that will get you started.
