Mother Earth doesn't need us
He is so Right -on!! I feel I sold out!! My own people- but my health is in the way and weakens me terribly. I must leave this apartment. and find a cheaper and healthier place to live. But the loneliness if I should return to Quebec.My 8th/9th I had could hardly stand- whilst again the kind Airline person put me in a wheelchair and I was nicley wheeled to the gate.

The Sahara Solar Breeder Project: 100 GW of Solar Energy in 2050
The Sahara Solar Breeder Project: 100 GW of Solar Energy in 2050
The Sahara Solar Breeder Project is a joint initiative by universities in Japan and Algeria that aims to build enough solar power stations by 2050 to supply 50 per cent of the energy used by humanity.
The idea is to begin by building a small number of silicon manufacturing plants in the Sahara, each turning the desert sand into the high-quality silicon needed to build solar panels.
Once those panels are operating, some of the energy they generate will be used to build more silicon plants, each churning out more solar panels and generating more energy that can be used to build even more plants, and so on. Hideomi Koinuma at the University of Tokyo leads the Japanese end of the project. He admits that making silicon panels from the rough sands of the Sahara or other deserts has not been attempted before, but says it is a logical choice.
