Green/Clean Tech


The High tech / Almost Living /Self sustaining /Building of the future
 
Imagine what a new Green/Clean Tech City of the future might look like ....

I picture Sky scrappers that seem to touch the clouds ..With green rooves and architecture unique to each artists interpretation ....Solar Panel Windows ...Every third floor or so a green house ..Used to grow food... Every 7th to grow bio Fuel ( Not derived from food crops) .....all Fed hydroponically through the vast tubes and hoses that would run like viens throughout the building, not only feeding the plants, but heating and cooling the Hig tech/ Almost Living/self sustaining building of the future.Clean Filtered water quenching the thirst/It's various foods satisfying the appetities of its residents, employees ,visitors, shop owners, curious enthusiastic buyers, stunned on lookers and passer byers ..

I can imagine -1 High Tech ,Self sustaining, Almost living building ..Creating/running off ,it's own energy ...With Little ,if nothing left to waste. For even the waste would be coverted/recycled into energy , fertilizer, something useful.Anything extra would be released for use ,for free ,for others who truly believe in Green/Clean Tech ,sustainability ,prosperity, the city of the future ...

All are welcome to Come see,visit, Dream to live in,add to, This/ your own, Building/City of the future....

Above is just a quick example of 1 possible," Green Building" .Only 1 Idea out of the endless possibilities, still needed /Already Started/Available/in this " Green/Clean Tech" City of the future..

This thread is to discuss Green /Clean Tech ......Ideas/possiblities and realities.. ...Real,Sci fi , or Fantasy .Doesn't matter.What ever works/Might possibly work.

A Thread for those with Vision /Direction/ Solutions ..Or for those who just like some creative discussion...
 
Who knows ...Perhaps 1 by 1 ...Piece by piece, we'll succeed in building ...The (virtually possible)City of the Future ...

Worst Case .. A Hell of alotta pieces of cool stuff layin around to browse over...

Supreme Court eases restrictions on corporate campaign spending - CNN.com -

Power to the people.(as long as your Big Biz employer says it's ok)..If corporations support a candidate ..It better be transparent...May I suggest sew on badges/symbol placed on the politicians suit ,next to his/her name?..How about an online registry?

1 of many potential problems I can see, is if big oil, banks or insurance companies publically supported a candidate ,and the candidate was required to disclose all big sponsors publically..They would never get elected.."They" know it..

Now on the other hand if a candidate was sponsored by Green/Clean Tech companies ..The people would stand in lines for miles to vote..:icon_smile: lol...However in the U.S. election system .The peoples vote only goes so far as it is now..


If a business/Building can be thought of as living entity/given the rights of people..

Why not animals?.. Dolphins ...Whales..Elephants and other intelligent animals..?..Let everything vote..Might have better voter turnout..:)

We must always remember The B.S.Games(Bailout/Stimulus

..We must always remember The B.S. Games (Bailout .Stimulus)..Lest we forget

1 - Gas/oil/house/commodity...prices.. ect ..soar to double what they should be, indicating the bubble was about to burst with a lot of hot air from Wall street ..Just before market crashs/End of Bush Rep. Presidency

2 - After Shady lending practises many( insiders knowing the bubble was going to burst/Adding Hot Air/Holding the pin)fraudulently sell off over inflated properties and assests...

3 - Market Crash becomes Crisis

4 - Big Biz/Banks are Too big too fail after sticking people with over priced properties and overly laxed loaning practises ..

5 - Big Brother Gov Bails Big Biz /Banks/Wall street out , with tax payer(the ppls) money, even though Main Street was already hurting due to over inflated market/consumer prices.

6 - Bailout/ Stimulus(B.S) plan is formed linking /tieing Obama's administration to the whole Scam .It becomes a U.S/Global bailout/stimulus..Willingly or not ..

7 - Big Gov/ Big Biz after ripping peoples futures away, use money to invest in the Crashed market THEY helped create..Leaving a Big Deficit

- Sorry no money left for the struggling Slave drones .... have to pay down the deficit ..

It's just plain B.S. Games ....It is unjust/ Simply Sad ..

Let us never forget the facts,...The Truth ...Wall street with Big Biz/Big Govs help screwed over ALL the people(Globally)....

It's All part of the market game...

The market lacks heart...

Solution - A well being / environmental indicator should be added into/along side the Market system/leader board, to help ensure, this never happens again...

Province of Alberta - Green/Clean Tech Speech From The Throne

Government of Alberta: Speech from the Throne - Province of Alberta - ..Speech From The Throne -
Sounds like a good Green/Clean Tech plan. If you can take the Droning(ly) long, mono tone speech by the Lieutenant Governor as he read page by drewling page, Aberta's way forward.. .lol.( He Knew ...Joked about it at the end..... ).

Alberta Gov. could lead in Green/Clean Tech Field.Clean Up It's Dirty Soiled Reputation.. If they can Clean up the Tars Sands/Ponds and Clean all the dirty oil off Those Greasy Ducks with Tooth brushs .. (Coated with " Dawn" Dish detergent of course.).Alberta has lots of experience with Grime and dirt ....

......Actually Alberta is a very scenic ecological wonder which includes the Great Boreal Forest within it's borders...It just happens to have some real big dirty eye sores and very Slick oilsters...:)..

Recall Toyota - Recall information on toyota cars and trucks


Judging by all these brake and other recently reported problems hitting the Auto industry LATEly .It would seem as though Vehicles are too dangerous and everyone should Take other safer,more reliable Transportation .Walking..

Toyota/Ford recall includes Some hybrids.....Sounds like a Good Ol' Made in America "Make work" project /solution for recession recovery ..

I sure hope this isn't another auto ploy to try again to halt the progress of New Clean/Green Cars...Like the games Some Big oil/Auto Leaders played in the 70's with all the Happy Hippies... Auto and Energy companies have had plenty of time to get with the times.This time they will fall even further behind, and out of contention all together, if they don't move confidently forward on new Green/Clean technologies ...Some Like Toyota and Ford have more recently pushed positively forward, Introducing new alternatives for it's Drivers .Taking the high road to Sustainability /Quality/Innovation and Affordability.Hope others will do the same.

.It is Time for Real Change that get's positive results...No more Games ......The Green/Clean future will not wait any longer....It is time to balance the playing field ..Time for a Balanced energy plan that includes a fair playing ground for all who can see the Green Lime light ..For all who are striving forward Toward New Green/Clean sustainable technologies...

Getting serious about green means spending black which leads to in the red so the bankers and bakers and candle stick makers all loose money. The present economic mechanism simply will not permit efficiencies that cut into their bottom lines. There are many old technologies that respect the environment and cost very much less to the users, such as dug in solar homes, all of them take money from the established industries.

CBC News -Nature of Things .. Nuclear Power...Informative show about Nuclear Power...You Decide...Would you move Somewhere that Had a Nuclear Power Plant?.


One of the Nuclear facilities spokes persons said " .If People didn't Want us here..We Wouldn't be here".. I found that a little Hard to Believe....

Although someone else said " Someday soon we'll find a way to turn the nuclear waste into energy."..I like that idea, that possibility.Let's make it happen ..Get some positive results A.S.A.P....For the day we can use, re- use ,recycle ,get the most energy out of the Energy source, with very little / No / 0 , Harmful waste...Is the day we succeed in sustainability ,Effeciency,Prosperity, longivity........

Only when A balanced energy plan that fairly/Evenly includes energy from all Clean energy sources is reached, will the Future , Truly be ours...Forever Forward..

Green/ Clean Tech is now, Is the future

Bribing people to buy electric cars is folly | Wheels.ca

Solar panel startup to lease residential rooftops - Yourhome.ca

TheSpec.com - Business - Class-action lawsuits could cost Toyota $3 billion

FOXNews.com - Safety Officials Investigate Runaway Prius Incident in California


I owned many cars ,all had their problems ...Worst car I ever owned was a 1993 Pontiac Grand Am LE...With a quad 4 engine ...Had nothing but problems.Mechanics wouldn't even lool at it , let alone work on it...Engine cracked ..Pistons blew.. Sensor in transmission caused car to stall out constantly...Caused me to go Bankrupt as young man just startin' out ...

Where was the Recall?...

Ex got ripped off with a first year model Ford Focus ...Caused her a lot of grief and Cash ...There were fortunately some recalls to help her out ...somewhat...

Every car has problems...They just don't seem to build them to last anymore...

Best cars I owned , was a Chevy Cavalier and an ol escort...They just wouldn't die , no matter how much abuse I put them through..Great cars..( although my escort had problems with gas pedal sticking under floor mat..I fixed that fast.. )

It would seem to me these toyota Recalls are nothing short than Shady Big Biz/ Gov politics...A way to make work, and get the people back to buying American...( so be it)

It is Good to see Toyota taking the Lead to resolve these issues ..Despite the hype and market unfairness ...

I hope this doesn't stall the new hybrids coming out ..They are great alternatives ..They are a welcome alternative to the same ol' Same oil ..

New Green/Clean Tech Alternatives are here..are coming out strong ...Like them or not Ol auto dwellers ...Better get used to them ...

Green/Clean Tech is here now .. is the future ...

Green/Clean Tech is Truly a Real sustainable, sensible, option/alternative as we work toward prosperity , democratic balance ,effecientcy , zero Waste , market fairness / peoples well being...

As we move Forever Postively Forward ..Into the future..Green/Clean Tech holds the solution ..It is the answer...It is a New Way .Another Way ..Some would say .The only way ...;) ...:)

Peace...

Over and out there from here..For now..

CBC News - Toronto - Toronto Zoo wants to turn feces into energy - Toronto metro zoo wants to build a Poo gas energy plant...
 
Green/ clean tech is the only sustainable future..

Europe is way ahead of us in using poop for power. There are thousands of examples of using this in Canada more but energy is still cheap for us and we supply ourselves. Germany which is moving on this, gets much of their energy from Russia where there are political/historical issues to worry about there.

Many small scale projects coudl put off the peak oil reckoning, so its a good idea. One wonders where the TO zoo puts its poop.

I have always wondered why there has been so little effort to use the huge supplies of manure generated by the giant feedlots in southern Alberta. Of course, I know the answer. In Alberta only the oil industry gets any significant government help. Alternative energy is definitely an afterthought with the government.
