Ginny Brackett said...: I am not sure there are any "local energy Initiatives". Energy has traditionally been served on a large scale. Local initiatives are a new idea that are just starting.; May 29, 2009 at 9:43 AM

Tyler said...: I believe we should use nuclear power in Maine. Wind solar, hydro, and geothermal are costly and have many drawbacks. Nuclear makes a lot of cheap power, and nuclear power really isn't that dangerous. France has always used nuclear, and they have had no issues with it. Nuclear is the most efficient.; May 29, 2009 at 9:43 AM

Anonymous said...: For alternate resources that are available in Maine can be wood,coal,hydro power, wind power, solar power and geothermal energy and maybe crops like corn; May 29, 2009 at 9:43 AM

Anonymous said...: I think that if cars would be made so their carbon footprint was smaller, it would be OK. Electric cars are a smart idea, but should not be the only source.; May 29, 2009 at 9:45 AM

Ryan Palmer said...: It only makes sense for all cars to go to electric if the sources of electricity are clean and renewable. While yes, we would cut down on pollutants by just having clean car exhaust, imagine how much better it would be for the environment if the sources of electricity that power the cars was clean too.; May 29, 2009 at 9:49 AM
Anonymous said...: I think the country should use more electric, solar, and wind power.; May 29, 2009 at 10:11 AM
Anonymous said...: Electric Cars are a good idea, but take a very long time to charge. If batteries are developed that can charge in- say 10 minutes, then they would make sense. However, If batteries that last a long time are developed, that would work good also.; May 29, 2009 at 10:17 AM
