Yes, Solar preheating of the oil dose reduce our electrical needs. In fact, provided we had the money to invest, we would power the entire plant using solar electric and backed up with a BIO DIESEL generator.

Bio Liberty, LLC is a green business run by veterans. Our current Bio Diesel plant is for demonstration of combining green technologies and to experiment with all sorts of alternative energy.

Especially in light of the great documentary on the Cobell case highlighted by GRITtv (tho I don’t think I’d use Tom Daschle as a friendly talking head for First Nation matters…another day) we should point out that like the Alberta oil sands production nuclear plants rely on uranium that comes from……First Nations land. And its not just the Navajo who bear the brunt of this mining.

Again, in the Dakotas people are still ill and experiencing high rates of cancer from uranium mining done in decades past and not cleaned up, if it even can be. PowerTech is fighting one determined group in South Dakota, Defenders of the Black Hills and its fierce Lakota advocate Charmaine White Face. If PowerTech gets its way - and so far the SD State Depts. in charge of protecting the environment have waved them on through the permitting process despite the scientific and passionate pleas against the mining - SW SD, near the very cosmic center of the Oglala, will again be plundered by deadly radioactive emissions from in situ uranium mining and in particular groundwater sources threatened. 40,000 acres in NW South Dakota, Harding County, have also been leased by yet another corporation seeking to mine uranium and will the State’s far-too-friendly permitting process may very well get the green light.

Alot of stuff for a small-populated state and a core group of activists to have to fight on their own.
Check out Defenders of the Black Hills. You’ll be glad you did.

” Nothing like being the center of History” nothing like changing things sure sounds like us right now. ” How to read Donald Duck” sounds hilarious I knew the Mouse was a Nazi I didn’t know the Duck was a racist!

Imagine how much money we could save if we stopped funding private nuclear reactors!
Ok if we really need Nuclear Reactors we need new one standard of plant run by one company under strict government rules.
However Denmark and Israel not France and Japan are the ones who are planning to go with electric cars even though they plan to buy the cars from French car maker Renault you would think that if France had the extra juice they would be going electric.
Denmark is getting its power from wind though and they have enough to charge their cars. I admit I am not sure about Israel’s power generation.
