No to Extremism...
Yes to Progress
Clean energy is an area we must improve upon. As America invents and manufacturers awesome new products from batteries to EVs to wind turbines, make sure it is produced domestically and remains here so that we remain leaders in the field and create millions of new jobs for Americans. Here Is a comprehensive list of proposals.
1) SOLAR ENERGY. Promote tax incentives to encourage placing solar panels and batteries on rooftops of buildings nationwide - especially in southern states with ample sun.
2) CLEAN CARS & BUSES. Promote the conversion of all city/state vehicles to pure electric. Incentivize the public to convert by giving 50-percent discounts on tolls to electric vehicles.
3) ELECTRIC/HYBRID TAXIS & CAR SERVICE. Legislation requiring taxis and car-service vehicles to be converted to electric/hybrid within 10 years.
4) ELECTRIC BUSES. Legislation to convert all school and city buses to pure electric.
5) ELECTRIC CHARGE STATIONS. Work with industry so that electic vehicles can quickly charge anywhere.
6) SOLAR LIGHTS. Convert all traffic lights, walk signs, street lamps, and subway lighting to solar energy with batteriy/sunlight devices attached. Devices will still be connected to the electric grid so that they work when sunlight is limited. Sreet lamps collecting solar energy all day may last quite a while by using energy stored during the day. Think of the savings when countless thousands of devices no longer need costly gas-burning electricity.
7) WASTE-TO-ENERGY. Investigate waste-to-energy trash disposal plants to deal with trash and create energy. It also requires that exhaust be heavily filtered. It's pointless to burn garbage and create new pollution.
8) WIND ENERGY. Do more to encourage use of free wind for energy. We are surrounded by sea and ocean. That is a good place to place wind turbines.
9) TIDAL ENERGY. The sea moves endlessly. An ocean surrounds us. Let's make use of it.
10) SOLAR ENERGY FROM ORBIT. The inensity of sun energy in orbit is a multitude greater than from solar panels on the ground. Further, it will collect energy 24 hours a day - no nights, no clouds. Beaming energy to earth is tricky, but a technological challenge that can be solved... far sooner than figuring out how to obtain fusion energy, which is how the sun does it.
11) SAFE NUCLEAR FUSION. Government should make enormous efforts to work with universities and industries to unravel the mysteries of fusion energy, which is how the sun produces energy. It’s complicated, but we want to master this endless source of clean energy. It will be a historic breakthrough.
These proposals may not cover everything, for many new ideas are emerging. It’s a win-win for everyone. Clean environment. Enormous new industries. Millions of jobs. Strengthened American economy.
