- Are you interested in becoming an organizer in your area?
- Maybe--But Not Sure What to Organize
- Tell us about your experience with alternative energy:
- Have recently constructed my own home utilizing artesian well to power two ground-source heat pumps . This system is incredibly efficient at using residual heat of the earth itself to condition my domain. My post-Katrina generator is optimized for biodiesel and vegetable oil as fuels.
I have created plans and procured the materials to build a wood-fired retort/incinerator with which to produce hardwood charcoal as I burn my neighborhood's combustible trash!
- What excites you about this campaign?
- The possibility that it may help to make CNG and LPG conversion kits affordable for my pickup trucks. Also, as a professional geoscientist, I am hopeful for the optimization of the petroleum/gas exploration and distribution industries in the Gulf Coast area. I would like to see these businesses help more with coastal restoration as they locate necessary pipelines and refineries.
- What do you want to do to help?
- I am currently developing new alternative energy applications in the context of my own permaculture-type homestead. At least two of my plans will be amenable to use anywhere in the world. I would like to help other people in actualizing their own sustainable homesteads and/or urban living spaces

Looks like you do some oyster raking. I demonstrate it on my cruise trips. I like your well idea. I plan to do something similar on my property. I hope I can beg some ideas off your experience.
Thanks,

BACK THEM , WE AS A COUNTRY MUST REALIZE (AND I'M SURE MR. PICKENS DOES ), THAT UNTIL THE GOVERNMENT IT SELF COMMITS TO A REAL PLAN TO USE ALTERNATIVE ENERGY WE MIGHT JUST BE LIKE A DOG BARKING AT A PROWLER AND NO ONE IS PAYING ATTENTION TO IT . WE MUST REALIZE THAT FOR THE IMMEDIATE FUTURE WE WILL BE BEHOLDEN TO FOSSIL FUEL . MR. PICKENS POINTS OUT THAT WE CAN'T " DRILL " OUR WAY OUT OF THIS . I BEG TO DIFFER . WE CAN AND WE MUST FOR THE IMMEDIATE SECURITY OF OUR OWN COUNTRY AND FOR OUR OWN ECONOMIC GROWTH .
THANK YOU

is yet less expensive . The problem lies in how long it will take to
bring this type of energy to market . There are many oil wells in this country that at the moment are idle , due to governments inaction to activate them and support those that are now operating . This country can no longer stand by , while the environmentalists are concerned about the wilderness , and wildlife . Nature has a way of taking care of its own . How many
eagles , birds , etc have been killed by the windmill ? You would be surprised at the number . We have enough resources in this country to be the energy leader of the world . Calling it the way it is
there are too many lobbyists , and foreign leaders in the pockets of the Washington politicians . These are just my simple comments . Thank you
