Renewable Energy Madness

Posted by jccaldara on Mar 25 2010 | Environment, Idiot Box (TV Show)

The recently passed House Bill 1001 mandates that 30 percent of Colorado’s energy be generated from renewable sources by 2020. But can mandates and subsidies really get us to the “New Energy Economy”? On this week’s Independent Thinking, Sate Senators Kevin Lundberg (R-Berthoud) and Mike Johnston (D-Denver) join me for a lively discussion on markets versus mandates and the future of renewable energy in Colorado. That’s this Friday at 8:30 PM on KBDI Cannel 12. Re-broadcast the following Monday at 1:30 PM.

    Are people just going crazy? Why all the mandates? Can’t we just work our way into things without government pushing us into it? If it is such a good idea, wouldn’t people just do it without being “MANDATED”?

    OH NO…… ONLY The Government can tell us what is right for us.

    I choose freedom and individual responsibility, if you do not want this, move to Europe. I am sure you will be very happy;) And I will be HAPPIER:))
