Jungle Talk

Are we hard wired to live a "good life"? And what is a "good life"? And are we accountable to the entire world that we live in?

This blog will humbly attempt to see my world (through experience, travel, photos, movies and clumsy, sincere examination) considered for its karma. And I will wonder if planet earth finds its karma good or bad?

Good luck and welcome to the jungle!

Solar Fever

"If your time to you
Is worth savin'
Then you better start swimmin'
Or you'll sink like a stone
For the times they are a-changin'. "     Bob Dylan

 

Solar power is coming at an historically feverish pace that will probably even raise the investment sphinters of the likes of Exxon and Chevron etc.   It feels too slow to you and me but a genesis is planted and this fossil fuel dependence is growing old at a transendental rate of change!

These photos show the World`s largest Solar Plant in Sarnia, Ontario, Canada (as of Oct.2010 at 80+MW). Of course that status may be changing as the these plants are springing up around the world and Solar moves forward exponentially to eventual dominance in sourcing world energy needs?
But don`t take my word for it. Google "Ray Kurzweil", scientist, inventor and visionary and think about his Solar predictions? He states that (due to progress in nano-technology applied to solar) solar will replace fossil fuels as a cheap and abundant energy generator within 16 years! I hope he`s as right on this as he usually is?

So Ray predicts that cheap and abundant solar power will replace fossil fuels within 16 years!? Now that`s a future with "blue sky" potential. The future looks very bright indeed!
