A Trio of Opinions on Trump’s Presidency
It appears there are three basic groupings of Americans with respect to our new president. There are citizens who believe that Donald Trump:
• Is doing a wonderful job, has exercised solid judgement, has already taken actions that support their values, and is to be commended for following through on his promises.
• Support his presidency out of a feeling of duty to country, but view it cautiously (“give him a chance”).
• Has already shown that he’s declaring war on virtually everything decent that America stands for, and have vowed to resist him. (more…)
For those who haven’t seen the incredibly thought-provoking video below, I recommend it highly. Here are a few comments: 
There’s more to “going green” than being a Hollywood trend. It’s not something we ought to talk about or do something about just because Leo DiCaprio or Edward Norton told us to do so. After all, the consequences of not caring for the environment will hit us, regular people, on more extreme proportions.
I hope you’ll check out this video from 
I just got off the phone with a manager of construction projects who has used a portable array of solar panels and a small wind turbine with battery storage to power his sites before grid electricity can be brought in, implemented as a replacement for gasoline generators. He says, quite correctly, that this solution is appealing to those interested in supporting the migration from fossil fuels to renewable energy. 
As previously mentioned, 2GreenEnergy takes considerable pride in helping young people get on the right track and stay there. Examples include:
Our civilization will survive on this planet if and only if we can come to realize that our common humanity far outweighs our surface-level differences. That’s especially true in this horrific climate of hate, fear, and exclusion in U.S. politics, though it’s hardly a new idea. But 
At 2GreenEnergy, we don’t back off from tough topics like runaway climate change and the hundreds of millions of climate refugees that will come as a result—or ocean acidification, or loss of biodiversity, or the decay of human health from an increasingly toxic environment. But, at the precise same time, there are entire populations whose survival potential is constantly on the rise as the result of all this mayhem. 
If you wanted to invest a few seconds, you could probably count the tires in the pic on the left. I don’t think you’d be so successful with the aerial shot below, however. When I came across this latter photograph just now, I decided to write a short post on the subject of waste-to-energy, in particular, waste-tire to either energy or fuels. The U.S. alone landfills approximately 300 million old tires each year, thus providing enormous habitat for the breeding of mosquitoes, while simultaneously wasting huge amounts of chemical energy that can be converted to useful work–in the form of some combination of electricity, liquid hydrocarbon fuels, or heat for industrial purposes. 
With rising energy costs and continuing concerns about environmental impact, plenty of people are looking for ways to make their homes more energy efficient and to save some money in the process. Luckily for you, the last few years have seen a number of improvements made that help homeowners save money while saving energy. Gone are the days of energy efficiency meaning a massive remodeling job, as many of these updates can be done in a weekend.
