More than enough wind energy to power our world, coal power is so last century

Submitted by takver on Tue, 11/09/2012 - 9:19pm

A new scientific study has found there is wind energy in abundance to power the needs of the world with near zero emission electric power several times over. The world currently utilizes about 18TW (TerraWatts) of power. The study identified that the lower geophysical limits for energy harvested from surface turbines (supported on towers on land and sea) was over 400TW. If turbines could be flown by kites to capture the more reliable high altitude winds, more than 1,800TW of power could potentially be extracted throughout the atmosphere.

Quit Coal banner drop and lockon at Victorian Parliament

Submitted by Anonymous (not verified) on Mon, 03/09/2012 - 5:58pm

Today (Monday 3rd September), 13 Quit Coal activists have brought the truth about dirty coal to the attention of Victorians in spectacular fashion. Ted Baillieu is planning to turn Victoria into a brown coal quarry, which is predicted to triple our greenhouse gas emissions and contribute significantly to more bushfires, floods, extreme weather conditions and catastrophic climate change. Nine activists locked themselves onto the pillars of Parliament, whilst four others dropped a banner of the roof which had to be removed by Search and Rescue.
