What does a revolving door and a remorseful duck have in common?
Why did the Toaster Oven cross the road?
Who the hell gave Celine Dion a recording contract?
Is global warming a legit threat?
These questions all have something in common: the end answers are up for great debate, but once it is all said and done we have to keep investing in green energy alternatives (and thus we conclude the worst intro ever).
Oil and coal, two of the biggest energy sources of the world, are running out. Hell, something scarier, hydro power plants, the most popular source of clean energy are drying up, and they represent some perspectively frightening percentage of our worlds energy production (and thus we continue with doing no research at all).
Now unless you have no access to the Internet, and let's be honest that is not my target market, you have heard some discussion to renewable energy. You know, like windmills, tidal farms, nuclear plants, solar power and many other obscure methods.
Hey, check this shit out, a lot of people have no jobs right now. The government is starting a bunch of funded projects to give employment to those who need it. It's called creating jobs and stimulating the economy, I hear it is a hit in East Asia. How about while they are funding these projects, we make some of them related to the construction of efficient power plants.
The implementation of green energy isn't even about the environment anymore. All signs point to yes. Job creation, sustainability, economically efficient (some more than other obviously), security, human fucking curiosity. What ever happened to the fun race we used to be, where new stuff was cool and intriguing and we just wanted more of it. Now we are afraid of revolutionizing our energy. We are treating it like an abusive parent when we should be engaging it like nitro in a Ford Focus. Come on people, there isn't much we can do except become rich and dedicate our lives to it. But what we can do is be receptive to the alternatives. Stop bitching when they try and change the world for the better. Leave the crying eyes in the drawer for a while and embrace the marvelous change in humanity that could be taking place around us.
If you need one last reason, here it is; Europe is owning us. I hate losing to those disgustingly clean Europeans, but they are way on top in green energy. Even England just signed a contract to build the worlds largest tidal farm. God sakes, England!? Come on North America, let's get our shit together.
