Nah, he'll do favours for people (back-tapping and circle-jerking) and then be appointed to the board of GE when he retires from politics.He will run the department of energy . We may actually see new technology that works now.
In other words, business as usual (...and it's the same worldwide).

In Boston ... he might not. It's one of the few towns with a useable public transit system. cn

That is actually a Look in the high ivory. I have a knowledge of hair grooming technologies, but that knowledge fits comfortably under my refined sense of apathy.

Dont be one of these girly "Im going for my fake tan at lunch" douche-canoes, and it's moderately more aerodynamic.

Most liberals hate him so Obama must be doing something right. The guy doesn't seem to buy into this "miles of solar panels and windmill" bullshit. He says frack away bitches we're gonna need everything we can get.

that's because current solar tech is garbage just a magic trick.They are close but until a new material is created it takes more energy to manufacture a panel then it will produce before it need maintenance.
hence a physicist would call this flawed.
Edit: well apparently the manufacturers have increased their "life span" to show positive results, but i bet that's in a controlled environment.

Takes a shitload of energy to heat a house and enough water for the day.
I suspect your numbers are skewed, even here in "misty rain land" a 300L solar hot water system will repay itself in less than 5 years.

Repay cost yes but that's because its manufactured with cheaper fossil fuels. what happens when they are gone. It wont be cost effective
Energy in = barely+ energy out
Your water heater takes :52.125 kWh just to top it off.
If it was perfectly insulated ( which its not)
