  1. How does my green day, worked in an agency that s, occupied the security Investigating 10 kg of PVC electric cables in case, we will fire 550 g / L of fumes, acids & sulfiriques of other dangerous products j matches, have resigned a long time ago a plant s photos volltaiques it costs more expensive research on alliagees to halt the aging of metals

  2. I like how theyr making an effort, but I still dont trust the American government after the supression of free energy devices in the last 60 odd years. I think theyr just in it for the money and if an idividual creates clean and grean energy they either buy them out, (and don’t use it) or they eliminate them….Y should America lead the global economy? last time they fukd it up! Theyr all in it for the money and if money didnt exist they wouldnt be trying to lead the clean energy economy!

    well …
    the term “fascist” comes from the latin word – fasces – wich was a bundle of wood in Rome during the period of the caesars , anyway … as a symbol of POWER they carried this bundle in front of a ruler or a person of high power… to symbolise wisdom AND military power , that is why there was a ax inside the bundle !
    Bennito Mussolini used this symbol for his “fascist” party !
    My advise , read the book ” are we rome ” from Mr. Cullen Murphy !

  5. @SearchAndBuild
    well …
    you got me there …
    YOU are right , in terms of a country polluting as a whole , then CHINA is “leading” … yep !
    Strange laws ???
    You mean like , locking someone up without a proper trial ?
    Wiretaps on tel. ?
    sending people to a military installation without a fair trial ?
    The patriot act ?
    those are Pres. Bush laws ? ( I mean the stupid one )
    HOW is Obama moving the country to a “tolitarian” state ?

  6. @GermanStraight1 we pollute the most in terms of individuals..but the country that pollutes the most is china..the difference is that individual chinese citizens dont pollute as much as individual american citizens.

    obama is a fascist because he wants to move the usa towards a totalitarian state. they don’t talk about these things in the news. i happen to follow congressional laws. there are many strange laws being created. obama also renewed the patriot act. look it up..

  7. @FREEUS1776
    well … no , I think you are right … you got me there … keep polluting the planet , so that JOBS can be kept and the rich folks make MORE money !
    Hey no worries , it´s only the planet we are talking about :-) ))
    Good dreams and GOOD NIGHT !

  8. @SearchAndBuild
    well …
    at least it seems that we can agree on ONE thing !
    That the US is polluting this planet the MOST , anyway … when and WHERE did I say that Obama is some for of “God” exactly ?
    I said that your country is MOVING in the right direction … if however you think that your President is a fascist , then I suppose you better check out the term fascist before you use it !
    Oh , by the way , the stupid face you see on your screen … it´s not me mate LOL

  10. @intrepidorator oil is making oil more expensive. oil is getting harder to find so it takes more and more barrels of oil to extract the oil..solar isn’t really a good solution in my opinion..the technology isn’t there..they aren’t yet practical..now..should companies be able to supress technology to maintain market relevance? i don’t believe they should..

  11. @SearchAndBuild that said, if you could steer me towards an alternative energy source that I can afford to install on my house, I would love to go “off the grid” and be self sufficient in my energy usage.

  12. @SearchAndBuild No, Im sure that the oil companies don’t want people to get off of their product. The point that I am making is that if Obama wants me, or the majority of people out there to switch to solar for our electricity, he would work on making solar a cost efficient option. instead Obama is working to make oil more expensive in order to make solar appear to be more cost effective than it really is.

  13. @intrepidorator

    there are many, many, many alt energy firms popping up all over the place. i don’t think you understand the influence of the oil industry in this world. you should look into all the technology that is suppressed by corporate interests. the market is just a concept made to feel tangible. our market limits our progress..profit should not supercede progress..especially when its profit for a few..

  14. @SearchAndBuild I trust the market to do what the market is intended to do, be profitable. If solar was profitable we would have hundreds of new start up companies getting rich, just like the dotcom bubble of the 90′s.

  15. @daderone Companies want to do 1 thing, make money. If solar energy was efficient and profitable then new companies would spring up to manufacture them. I wouldn’t expect an oil company to lead the way. But if Solar made sense, then new companies would be getting rich selling people like me a cost effective alternative to the electric companys power.

  16. @GermanStraight1 Germany gets 16% of it’s energy from renewable sources..the rest comes from coal, natural gas and petrol..

    you seem to think that obama is some sort of god..he is not..he is a fascist..if you knew the truth about the American government you would not be saying these things.

    We are the country that pollutes the most and consumes the most resources yet we have immense poverty..stop praising a government and administration that does nothing for its people..you look stupid.

  17. @intrepidorator why would you trust this market or the criminals who manipulate it?

  18. in the end my thoughts on alternative energy to those who share your opinion is to listen. God gave you 2 ears and one mouth for a reason. Watch the video and listen as if it is a possibility you could learn something and that some people are indeed more informed and intelligent than yourself (no matter who you are). Listen to Gary Locke.

  19. @intrepidorator that sort of logic is what has led America to go from the country that created the car to one who can barely compete with Japan. The fact is when you have companies locked into an old way of doing things they often don’t change, and when the bottom line is incentivized only by profits and to shareholders businesses lose sight of their fundamental role in the economy and are unable to adapt to demand shifts often bankrupting rather than change. There is no invisible hand my friend

  20. like what I hear so far and am so glad we have an administration and congress that realizes how important alternative energy is in the future of our nation. I look forward to the rest of the videos. Thanks for your hard work.

    well …
    aagin … do your research mate , it´s NOT Petro … not in Germany !
    Sorry mate !
    Hey , do not let me interuped your dreams … LOL

  22. Heres my opinion on green energy.
    If green energy made sense economically, then the free market would have gone that way. The research that I have done shows that it would cost me, with my tiny little 1000 sq ft home, $27000 to switch it to solar. It would take 13 years for this system to pay for itself.
    2 ways to make solar the best choice,
    (1.) make it affordable and efficient, or
    (2.) Artificially make the other forms of energy even more expensive.
    Obama has chosen option 2.

  23. @pgunn01 thats a little stalker-ish that you would know that, no? If it bothers you, dont read it.

  24. @brandonktom There are plenty of good movies. That doesn’t mean people need to mention it on the comment page of every political video on youtube.

  25. @pgunn01 ….its a good movie…
