Clean Energy, Let’s Make It Happen

Published on May 28, 2009 in clean tech, environment, politics, technology and video. View Comments

This is a video of a quick, updated presentation by Al Gore at TED2009. He presents some worrying new findings about climate change. I know all this doom and gloom can be quite alarming but I’m very much focusing on the positive these days, so do stick with the video until the end to see the positive.

Gore makes his stance clear on so called “clean coal” technology and presents some better, practical solutions to climate change. He’s advocating and campaigning for the rapid uptake of 100% renewable energy in America. This will create jobs and economic prosperity, as well as helping to solve the problems of climate change.

Clean tech is something I’ve become very interested in lately, and I’m researching it to find out as much as possible about it. The claims about so called clean coal made by the US coal industry can just as well be applied to Australia. However, it’s an exciting prospect to think we could transform the way we produce energy, moving from a dirty, polluting, industrial world to one which is sustainable and produces a high percentage of clean, renewable energy. I’m in, how about you? Let’s do this thing!
