Colorado Strong Solar Programs

I had been considering posting some negative views about Obama's climate speech, just to keep this blog "balanced", but I have decided not to do that because the views were not a criticism of the science behind the stated US position on climate change, they were views that basically said, "well this is a hopeless battle, coal workers and coal businesses will have to pay a big penalty, so why try to do what is right?"

Well in every worthwhile undertaking, sacrifices are required. So lets look to Colorado for some inspiration. Colorado has on average 300 sunny days a year, and yet they now generate less solar power than NJ. So Colorado is going for 1 million solar roof tops by 2030. For details from see Renewable Energy World.
