How Will I Know I Am Cured Of Herpes

Can we change the energy model?



AvesForum in the electronic forum are discussing the position of NGOs on nuclear energy and wind energy. In this debate, I intervened and I wanted to rescue a part of one of my posts for the blog.

The message said he thought it was a mistake if we raised the debate in terms of whether wind or no wind and had to discuss energy directly on the model. In my view, the challenge is to change the model How?, Because according to the following points:
1) reduce our consumption through awareness, energy efficiency improvements in building models, etc.
2) Enhancement of energy self-sufficiency versus industrial production (solar panels in homes and industries, horizontal small wind, etc.)
3) about the point of production to consumption centers and urban land use and industrial production energy
4) Research on new forms of energy production environmentally friendly
5) disregard the higher risk industries (get into the same package to nuclear, coal, small hydro and wind farms in environmentally sensitive areas) and ,
6) rational water use in prioritizing the use hydropower environmental water to energy.

The problem is to do what I think change is a global energy model that involves economic investment, and what is worse, the powerful business removing energy companies. But I believe there are few solutions that do not pass through here.

As wind power is my opinion that is not bad per se, what happens is that wind development has been carried out in Spain fatal. There has been planning and was transferred to large companies throughout the initiative. So we could have used wind power through horizontal turbines do not kill birds, could also be a or two wind turbines in each of the industrial estates and not have to open thousands of miles of trails in our natural environment, or even have excluded all those places of great ecological value to put wind farms, etc. But as interesting is that the business take him power companies can not be a more rational. To all this our environmental authorities have been blindfolded and ¬ I heard two industry colleagues have covered their mouths.

How should be the energy mix? It makes me more or less the same provided that the above points, for me the debate is elsewhere.
