    clean coal sucks

    Clean coal sucks.

    Can different colored solar-panels be produced, or are they?

    I know green is at least naturally produced.

    Re: clean coal sucks

    Hello jamison2000e,

    There seems to be more comfort in re-inventing the wheel, or refining old technologies (coal) than appetite or investment for totally new strategies. Perhaps there is a shortage of ideas, or heaven forbid, they are not profitable for big business.

    I have a friend who works in the solar sector and shall ask him about different colours of solar panel on your behalf.

    In the meantime, how about a company that manufactures Organic Jeans, and derives all of their dyes from nature? Here's the link.

    Regards,

    Re: clean coal sucks

    I read about this on cnn but I cant find the link to the report. But I did find a related artical..

    http://www.ecogeek.org/content/view/1329/

    The original report said the nano material could trap and concentrate 90% of the light and so bring the efficacy up drastically.

    However I don’t have a problem with clean coal, some solutions are better then others. I do think we need to find away to create energy and produce oxygen rather then carbon. I feel as if there must be some way, the plants do it all the time so why not us?

    I hear solar technology dose move fast. Wonder how many power plants we could eliminate in the world just marketing and rethinking small solar devices.
