20% renewable energy by 2020
By
Raising the share of renewable energy from 8.5% to 20% in the overall energy consumption is a necessary contribution to the global fight against climate change and towards better control over our energy dependence. The various uses of renewable energy are examined: electricity through wind and hydraulic energies; electricity or heat through geothermal and solar energies; electricity, heat, and biofuel coming from biomass. The EU is a world leader in the use and deployment of technologies that exploit renewable energy sources, providing over 350.000 jobs and an annual turn-over of € 30 billion.

Least we forget the role of energy efficiency in
the push to lower emissions. Even just a few simple adjustments to buildings (e.g. caulking and well-insulated windows) and improvements to the power grid can make a considerable difference in lowering emissions.
Great video!

Lets not leave it …
Lets not leave it up to them. Everybody has stake in this so that means we all have responsability. Anything will help. from reducing your own energy signature to writing politicians nonstop and tell them what you want to see happen. As much as they like to think they can ignore us if we all did it, thaey could never ignore us. We need to realize that the power is ours. Somewhere along the way they tricked us into handing it over.TAKE IT BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
