Biodiesel is very popular out here on the coast. There is a veritable armada of old volvos and VWs with purple and white stickers proclaiming that they run on biodiesel. The exhaust smell is negligible and we can grow the stuff!
I'm also big on small-scale wind energy production. I want a little windmill that will power a jack pump to fill our water tanks. There used to be scads of them around Las Vegas when I was a kid, mostly at derelict farms. Each had a little green zone around them.
They're talking about a new development (Antioch? Livermore?) that they want to build that would require solar panels for electricity.
There's hope.
Hi, Peg! I've been meaning to add your journal for ages and just recently got around to it. So many wonderful comments about you and your writing, how could I resist?
