Alternative Energy News Sunday September 24th 2006

I-937 will help ensure cleaner future for all
(The Herald) The Northwest has longed been blessed with a tremendous source of renewable energy. Hydroelectric dams along major river systems have provided communities and industries with power that's clean, and relatively cheap and reliable. They've also kept the region less dependent than other parts of the country on pollution-emitting sources like coal.

Lignite used as energy source before Civil War
(Texarkana Gazette) The mining of South Arkansas lignite dates back to pre-Civil War days. With rising energy costs and dwindling fuel resources, Arkansas lignite may become a valuable commodity once again. Before the Civil War, lignite was used as steam-boiler fuel and later as fuel for small locomotives near lignite mines in Ouachita County, according to information from the Arkansas Geological Commission.

ALL ELECTRIC
(San Francisco Chronicle) "...I just saw the gas mileage ticking away, and we had an abundance of electricity from the roof system. So we decided to look for electric-powered cars. It was the spring of 2002 and Toyota had made their (electric-powered) sport utility vehicle, the RAV4 EV, available for purchase to Californians at that point."

Beyond Nuclear symposium held
(Green Left Weekly) A September 15-16 national symposium hosted by the Beyond Nuclear Initiative - a collaboration between Friends of the Earth, the Australian Conservation Foundation and the Poola Foundation (Tom Kantor Fund) - featured presentations on the health and environmental impacts of the nuclear cycle by the Medical Association for Prevention of War; renewable energy technologies and climate change by outspoken alternative energy academic Mark Diesendorf; nuclear weapons proliferation by former diplomat Richard Broinowski; and winding back the global nuclear arsenal by MAPW's Tilman Ruff.

Race for alternate energy City, state could be the leaders, but ...
(MLive.com) Can Ann Arbor and Michigan be the center of gravity for alternative energy research and development in an environment where dozens of states are vying to lead? Leaders in energy research and economic development say it could happen, but the state needs more funding for alternative energy start-up companies, a powerful advocate for energy in the state who can bend the ear of politicians and companies, and cooperation across research institutions' lines.
