This is all true, but none of them want to hear it. They'll start picking it apart with well-rehearsed regressive propaganda soon.


imagine if one major corporation put their profit toward these alternative sources.

Cities could be self-sustaining; with food, production, residential, power, recreational, social and education dedicated areas alligned in belts, and is both innerly connected and externally connected with other cites with the same functions.




The food would be easily produced by 50+ story buildings using non-soil bases and take a lot less space.
These hydroponic and aeroponic agricultural bases reduce nutrients needs and water needed by 75%, while also removing the poisoning agents of insecticides (which show up in every living person, even infants)

...this looks strangely familiar :rolleyes:

You are going to find that most posters here do not take the Venus Project seriously .

tell me why i seen a thing on tv the other day *think it was history international* where they said that a 5 square miles of solar panels set up in Death Valley would run America all by itself, no coal, no nuke, no harm

and on top of that would create 100k jobs


at least thats what history channel said

...it would take 650 million square miles of solar panels to provide all electricity for America .

The Earth is 195 million square miles !

...you should because I looked up the math as provided by the solar panel industry !


Annual power consumption in the US is approximately 1.2*10^15 Watt-hours. The average solar panel can generate 80W continuously. We can break up the calculation into parts:

1.2*10^15 Watt-hours per year
9125 hours per year
1.31*10^11 continuous watts
80W per panel
1643835616 panels
1000 sq. inches average solar panel area

650 million square miles

>.< why not?
plus about the solar power; we are in the process of setting up major solar satellites; again, if we can collect even 1% of the sun's energy we'll be ok. even if we don't quite hit 1%, we can use the alternative sources i stated before. it's relatively easy and cheap but nobody has approached this method >.<
