Let’s Get Serious with Hydropower

Actually we need to get serious with Hydropower and serious about Hydropower. And we say that because Hydropower is the answer to the ultimate correction of global warming, carbon gases and water and air pollution.

We have been repeatedly told that coal, oil and natural gas provide millions of jobs.

We have repeatedly said that full use of the hydropower sources would employ millions.

We have repeatedly said that coal, oil and natural gas are pollutants.

We have been repeatedly told that coal, oil and natural gas are getting cleaner.

To this we have repeatedly and correctly said – Are You Kidding???

It has been proven that “Money talks, everything else walks.”

The facts remain that the coal and oil industries have tremendous power.

Power that reaches into the financial industry, troubled as it is; the banking industry, troubled as it is; the political activities field, conscienceless as it is.

Ok enough...

We have repeatedly said that hydropower with geothermal power (where it exists) can totally eliminate the need for coal, oil and natural gas.

No one can deny this.

Sadly it seems we must remind everyone that electricity is the most efficient form of energy use for all processes: heating , lighting, air conditioning, running automotive units, running trains, desalinating sea water, in fact for all things that require energy.

The only reason electricity is not used for everything everywhere is IT’S COST!
The only reason its cost is so high is that the coal, oil and natural gas industries have forbidden the development of Much Cheaper Hydropower –

Once again political power and financial power can be shown to be incestuous siblings. And Financial is the Big Brother.

Is there a parallel to the tobacco industry when we see how tobacco products have been proven to cause disease and death and provide no benefit to humanity? Thanks to that industry’s financial power –it too still exists.

We’re not finished repeating the facts – as you will see if you stay tuned.
