Renewable energy could reduce emissions but also create jobs and improve public health.
I think what we all have to do is make this big leap towards renewables. And it has to be a solution where you're actually building the answer; and it has to be built faster than the natural gas industry can build their answer.
Renewable energy is a clear winner when it comes to boosting the economy and creating jobs.
Once the renewable infrastructure is built, the fuel is free forever. Unlike carbon-based fuels, the wind and the sun and the earth itself provide fuel that is free, in amounts that are effectively limitless.
Nevada is poised to lead our nation in renewable development and we must harness those resources.
When I started doing things on my own, I was figuring - remember, it was a very nascent market. And there was a lot that was unknown about the renewable marketplace in 2004, early 2003, when I was planning on it.
What we are investing in, from a generation standpoint, are renewables and natural gas.
From solar to electric cars, from geothermal to reconfiguring the grid, the scale of investment needed in green technologies in order to meet whatever agreements on emissions reductions are finally agreed will be immense.
You could power America with renewables from a technical and economic standpoint. The biggest obstacles are social and political - what you need is the will to do it.
Unquestionably, major transformation of the way the U.K. generates its heat and power is essential.
I support a Green New Deal to put people to work building a renewable green energy infrastructure that can help us fight climate change and protect our communities.
I am very focused on large-scale deployments of renewable power and how we're going to get this done. Imagine our military bases covered with solar thermal collectors that could generate steam and electricity.
There are even many huts built entirely of the universal aloe.
The more traditional fuel sources we have relied on as a nation - coal, oil, and natural gas - I'm hoping they can allow us the financial springboard to move to the next generation of energy sources: renewables and alternatives.
If there was ever a state that can transition to renewables and then get it on the market, it's us.
