Re: $5.00 Diesel - time to put her up on blocks!

If nuclear power is such a great idea, why won't the private insurance
companies insure it? Without government guarantees, all nuclear
plants would have to shut down today because no private insurance is
available.

The best idea here in California for electric cars is to mount solar
panels on your roof to capture sunlight and convert it to electricity
to charge the batteries in the car.

On an industrial scale and a central power generation model, large
solar farms can be built out in the desert and used to separate
hydrogen and oxygen to fill fuel cells which can be transported to
fueling stations for hydrogen powered cars.

Here is a link to a very popular web site about a zero carbon home on
one of the most northern islands of Great Britain. So you don't have
to live in California to make zero carbon technologies work.
