I found a report that I'm posting the link below. They are estimating an 80 year supply of uranium alone. I think it would be wise to look into nuclear in the short run as a way to allow other energies time to catch up to our needs.<BR/><BR/>http://www.worldenergy.org/documents/conservative generationhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10614578478747561732noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8571885563565623577.post-40607333237453372212009-03-05T06:12:00.000-05:002009-03-05T06:12:00.000-05:00I will certainly check out the blog.

Power companies are monopolies and as such, all costs go to the customer. We are going to pay dearly for them to do nothing(only slightly concerned for this one).<BR/><BR/>I am going to need to patronize you a little in that Californiaconservative generationhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10614578478747561732noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8571885563565623577.post-75949156023745361782009-03-05T00:38:00.000-05:002009-03-05T00:38:00.000-05:00http://lifekills.wordpress.com/***That's my friend...http://lifekills.wordpress.com/<BR/>***That's my friends blog... he has done quite a bit more reserach on the topic, it may help to support or challenge you stance on these types of issues.

However, I'm speaking specifically about power plants and not other companies, because they can't just put solar panels on their roofs and still supply their customers. I was being a little selfish in this regard, because cap and trade for power companies will raise homeowners and renters energy bills. It's a tax to us, not the conservative generationhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10614578478747561732noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8571885563565623577.post-50084256598656919072009-03-04T22:20:00.000-05:002009-03-04T22:20:00.000-05:00I don't think your closing sentence is Obama's sty...I don't think your closing sentence is Obama's style. The problem is not the fact that these plants produce carbon, as much as it is the corners these companies cut at the environment's expense in order to save money. By modernizing their factories, they would not be subject to cap and trade penalties. The move is forcing companies to modernize their equipment. <BR/><BR/>A great example is The Lawhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18232167775850895479noreply@blogger.com
