Giving up on the wind field and is even prepared to take the case to court if the rare plover isnt spotted soon there could be a new wind turbine spinning here in the near future. the spite some setbacks germany has made strides forward in its transition towards sustainable energy and away from coal and nuclear power and lots of companies are trying to jump on the bandwagon like one startup thats taking wind energy in a different direction it doesnt build giant turbines for wind farms its develo...

In the near future. despite some setbacks germany has made strides forward in its transition towards sustainable energy and away from coal and nuclear power and lots of companies are trying to jump on the bandwagon like one startup thats taking wind energy in a different direction it doesnt build giant turbines for wind foggs its developing kites to generate power my colleague went to see how close they are to bringing the technology to market. this kind could help solve the energy problems of t...

Grid by 2050. we can do it. >> senator webb, youre pro coal, pro offshore drilling, pro keystone pipeline. are you out of step with the democratic party? >> the question really is how are we going to solve energy problems here and in the global environment if you really want to address climate change? when i was in the senate, i was an all of the above energy voter. we introduced legislation to bring in alternate energy as well as nuclear power. im a strong proponent of nuclear power. it is safe...

Energy supply. >> we have to wonder what will happen when this is accessed. what would be the market. selling the supply must also be part of the strategy here. >> well, egypt has a current deficit of gas supply of 3 billion cubic feet every day which is half its total demand it cant meet. and this field will produce about 3 billion cubic feet per day when it is developed. that would nicely fill the gap. this will potentially solve egypts energy problems for an extended period. i dont expect a l...

It will take just one month to get iraqi crude oil flowing once again. >> black gold, preserves 10 billion barrels. >> the decade of violent insurgents prevents them from reaching their potential. >> an explosion at an oil pipeline. ministry officials call it sabotage, and the u.s. military is investigating. no injuries, but a blow to iraqs alreadyled oil industry. >> if iraq was expected to relieve the worlds energy problems in 2003, the years of

>> not quickly. im so glad the oust is becoming more energy independent. we only produce about 3 billion barrels a day of shale gas and oil right now. we use about 90 billion barrels a day of fossil fuels ourself. so i dpoepts think were going to solve europes energy problems, but were going to need to speed up the manufacturing of shale gas. i dont see us becoming a major exporter in the near future. >> in the time we have left, george, where are we headed? were going to have a vote a week from...

>> it will take just one month to get iraqi crude oil flowing again after the invasion. >> black gold under the ground, reserves of 10 billion barrels. theres so much of it here, it comes out of the ground, catches fire and just burns away. >> but the decade of violent insurgency and all-out chaos that follows ultimately prevents iraq and its oil sector from reaching the potential that u.s. policy planners had in mind. >> an explosion at an oil pipeline. iraqi oil officials call it sabotage. the...

>> well, no. i think the last senate is. >> you think liberals see inequality as a disease? >> i see it as liberals saying this is happening because someone is greedy or the government is not doing this or wall street is suing that. you have a lot of class warfare going gave going back and forth. declining wages because of an i.t. revolution and declining wages because in the past, we have had energy problems. we are not going to have those. im very optimistic right now and i agreed with brian y...

Tip. so what theyre trying to do is lets get rid of the stick because that costs money. lets get rid of that huge gearbox because that costs money. lets even get rid of two of the sticks and just fly in circles that last 25% of the tip. ♪ >> it probably makes me sound like a hair shirt environmentalist, but three years ago i was, like, if im going to talk this talk about energy problems, i have to actually walk it and figure out what the solutions are. initially i looked and measured how much ...

All of our energy problems. but we know, for example, the low-hanging fruit of energy efficiency. we know that if we design our schools, homes, hospitals more efficiently that as a country we could probably cut our power usage by 20%, 25%, 30%, with existing technologies, and without lowering our standard of living. and, by the way, we can put a whole bunch of folks to work doing it right now. we could gather up a whole bunch of young people here in this community, train them for insulation, for...
