The future of energy
John McCain is pushing for more nuclear power while Hillary Clinton is politicking for ethanol -- proof that a political will for alternative energy has finally arrived.
Nuclear power still has a lot of question marks surrounding it and it is hard to share McCain's enthusiasm, but at least the conversation is leaving the realm of drilling wildlife refuges and wars with middle eastern countries, even if just for a moment. Still, wind and solar power need to be discussed along side all the other alternatives if not more so than the other options.
Driving through the countryside on the trip to D.C. I saw a lot of solar cells capturing sunlight along the highway and turning the radiation into usable power. Solar power seems like an unrealistic goal to a lot of its critics so as an environmentalist it is good to see the awesome power of the sun being harnessed.
Changes seem to be on the horizon and they're long past due. But as they say, better late than never.

John McCain is going down hill.

No.
The only time she will ever act is if the polls tell her to. I like a person of principle, not politicians that move in whatever direction the wind blows.
