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:

Almost none but did ask the local electric delivery company about solar on the roof of my home. I need real technical information to be better informed and better equiped to kick off an organization here is Virginia.

What excites you about this campaign?

The plan is an excellent basic plan that is clearly defined and well explained. I can visualize the outcome and the outcome makes sense. In addition, the plan allows input and responsible flexibility or process improvement.

What do you want to do to help?

I want to start by getting the local electric company to allow the cost of solar panels on my house (and other homes and businesses) to be paid through monthly payments on my electric bill over 30 years and be a transferrable cost if I sell my home. I want the electric company to be limited to a small ($25 monthly) fee for this service with no opportunity to increase this fee. I want the electric company to let me use the electric I create for personal use and pay me for the excess (if excess exists) that goes into the general electric grid. If I use more than I create, I pay the 12 or 6 cents per Kwh we are charged today. I want my county supervisors to get on board with NO CLEAR CUTTING so we can keep the air, land, and waterways supporting our environment, controlling erosion, cleaning our air, and keeping our county pretty while providing a great lifestyle.

I also meant to tell you I feel exactly the way you do about putting solar panels on my house. I can't afford them & waiting for support from gov't.

Great to see you here I had best friends from Dale City near you.Don and Naomi Turner he was once a county commissioner.I reduce energy in fluorescent lighting systems all over the country . What really confounds me is the technology already exists to reduce energy and its not implemented in small businesses even tho the ROI is a mere 18 months. Lets both continue to push for a cleaner environment. tkx chris

This site and others suggested and the investment suggestions are keeping me busy researching but very happy with what I am finding. We all need to keep working at this and get the government to allow Pickens to do what he does best and move out of the way to our use of energy-reducing tools and investments. This site gets better every day. I only wish I had more time. Your right about how clear the plan is described. I plan to push my county supervisor again this week. Wish me luck.

Join the club. I am not very good with compiters ago. I am an old Slide-rule guy. A lot of people of this generation do not know what a slide rule is. If you do not check the dictionary.
You can get to the People's Petition (I drafted it) by
double clicking on this link
http://www.ipetitions.com/petition/windenergycorporation
I know there is a spelling mistake access should be excess and WET stands for Wind EnergyTax.
The support for the Petition has beed good, better than I expected. My thanks to all that have signed it. To-gether we can achieve our goal - Energy Independence.

Please support..
Thanks

Just think, we can have turbines, solar panels raising above our corn, wheat, tomatoes, and other crops. Isn't sharing the land great? Think of all the new inventions that can come out of this way of viewing land.
