Climate Change Solutions
Color indicator of where we are now:
We Have It
Research and Development needed
Currently Hindered
Decrease the Gases that cause Global Warming
Change Oil Energy to other Energy Sources
Renewable Energy
Wind Energy
- Wind Turbines
- Cheap power
- Huge - siting problems
- Easy to store energy
Hydroelectric Power
- Good, large scale cheap power
- All the good sites are already developed
Alternate Energy Sources
Solar Energy
- Solar Panels:
- Cheap
- Efficient
- Easy to install
- Easy to store energy
- Easy to feed the electric energy grid
Nuclear Power
- Fission
- Cheap/Cheap
- Safe/Safe
- Efficient/Efficient
- Easy to install
- Fusion
Energy Storage
- Cheap
- Safe
- Efficient
- Easy to install
- Easy to feed the electric energy grid
Other Goals
Change Process Technology
- Concrete (Releases tremendous amounts of CO2)
CO2 Capture (instead of releasing into the atmosphere)
- Research and development projects (some large) are capturing CO2 from combustion power plant exhausts
- The problem is cost
CO2 Storage (instead of releasing into the atmosphere)
- Deep earth storage is being investigated
Limit extraneous gas releases
- Methane capture
- Eliminate gas flaring
