An old cart sits rotting and behind it an old windmill that is no longer in use. A pump run by solar power now pumps the water up to the tank. Taken on Muloorina Station in the north of South Australia.
A large array of solar panels at the Anheuser-Busch InBev beer plant in Cartersville, Georgia. 'Green' can be good business, apparently.
Opened in 1993, the brewery sits on 1,700 acres, with a total plant floor area of 900,000 square feet. Annual capacity is 8 million barrels per year. The brewmaster (as of the date of this photo) is Sarah Schilling.

We have replaced our wind generator with a three sided solar panel "Tower of Power". It may become a new photo fixation for me. Summit Station, Greenland... top of the ice sheet HDR Aug 22 12 0056_7_tm
Demanding good jobs, healthier communities, and frontline justice with 100% clean, renewable energy, hundreds of New Yorkers converged on the State Capitol on Wednesday to call on Governor Cuomo and state lawmakers to support the NYS Climate & Community Protection Act (A.10342) – the nation’s strongest climate protection bill. NY Renews, a historic group of labor, environmental, and grassroots organizations, is coming together for the first time to trailblaze a new front in the fight against climate change – pushing the climate protection debate from an environmental discussion to an economic and social justice one.

Next Generation Power and Energy EU online take a look at some fact and figures of solar power in Europe.
105 solar panels are installed at Littlestown Veterinary Hospital in Littlestown, PA, in mid September 2010. The Littlestown Veterinary Hospital in Littlestown, PA, received a grant from the U. S. Department of Agriculture, Rural Development under the Rural Energy for America Program (REAP) to have solar panels installed to help reduce their carbon footprint and to have cost effective electric power for the hospital. REAP provides grants for energy audits and renewable energy development assistance. The program also provides funds to agricultural producers and rural small business to purchase and install renewable energy systems and make energy efficiency improvements. The expected cost savings using solar power for the hospital’s electrical needs is expected to reduce the facility’s operating expenses by 30%-40%. USDA Photo by Lance Cheung.
About a million years ago a friend of mine told me, if I was going to ride a recumbent I was the one that would have to make it cool, well, here I am with my two new 50 watt monochristaline solar panels packed in my trailer on my recumbent heading to my boat to make some ice with the sun... I'd say that was pretty damn cool!

Located in the Mojave Desert 40 miles southwest of Las Vegas, The Ivanpah Solar Electric Generating System is a solar thermal power project, currently under construction, with a planned capacity of 392 megawatts gross, enough to power approximately 140,000 houses. It will deploy 173,500 heliostat mirrors spread over approximately 3,500 acres, focusing solar energy on boilers located atop three solar power towers, generating steam to turn a conventional steam turbine. The project – owned by NRG Solar, Google and BrightSource Energy – is currently the largest solar thermal plant under construction in the world. The project is being constructed by Bechtel.

A new invasive species is creeping across the Antelope Valley, known for its miles of wildflowers. This large, stark, three-petaled invader, with its plain thick stem, is not much to look at. It kills off all the native plants, destroys the scenic beauty of the area, and pretty much takes over the landscape. It is also fatal to birds and bats.
Yet this invader is subsidized by the federal government, which pays people to spread it. Not only that, government bureaucrats spend taxpayer dollars to propagate another invader, the rectangular sun cup, that has already wiped out several square miles of native wildflowers in the space below the three-petaled invader.
One of my favorite viewpoints of the California poppy fields backed by the snowy Tehachapi Range has been forever degraded by these invasive species. Rumors are that they will continue to spread in this unique habitat.
