Dear Wanderer,
I use solar and Pellets and have a insulated house, with double bricks and windows with triple glasses. So it's OK
I shall send you about Greenland. I am still searching. It was a documentation on radio and I am looking for it again
cheers
I couldn’t found the broadcast station anymore. But I’ll repeat as good as I remember:
O-TonKuupik Kleist said that he is longing for the complete independence from Denmark. The announcer described the minerals and natural resources of Greenland. They mentioned the sea waves projects of Danish firms like Poseidon Project which would like to install Wave energy power stations all over Europe and said that Greenland shall use the melding water of the glacier to produce the energy they needed. And that in future, if they use wave energy too, he can see them producing enough energy to sell electricity to the other countries around them.
I believe that they only need so much energy for mining the zinc. That would mean destroying a lot of nature. The Northwest Passage is about 6000 km away from America, and Greenland is not worried at all about the glacier melting because the ships can pass more easily.
I saw the sites about the danger of producing this type of energy and I’ll try to read more about it because it interests me.
Did you know that the German-Australian Chamber for Industry and Commerce have developed Wind and Solar projects in Australia.
By the way pellets are very small pieces of waste wood. They use it here for central heating systems. Everything works with computer and automatically.
The farmers don’t plant anything for biogas they use liquid waste and the dung from the animals. They wanted to make petrol from plants but they realised that the people would most probably starve sooner or later because they would plant any more food. This project has been stopped
Cheers
