Coordinating Hollywood to Facilitate Energy Revolution

Comment comment by Brandon on 30 March 2007

This is the plan Al Gore needs to follow to really make a difference:

  1. Pay to have his home converted to net energy into the system.
  2. Finance home conversion "kits" to allow those without enough money to also net energy back into the system.
  3. Coordinate others like him with bookoos of money to do the same.

The effects of doing this would be phenomenal:

  • Those with the means and doing the preaching would be setting a good example (and making the most difference, given the huge amounts of energy they use).
  • Those without the means would gain them. This would also double as a charity if done to help the lower class - who would then have the cost of utilities removed and also have the income from selling green energy into "the grid." One potential way to do this would be to fund Habitat for Humanity to make all of their homes energy-positive. This not only helps the lower class, but also implements the technology through a channel that will help those living in the homes learn how it works (as they are required to help build their homes), as well as those in the surrounding community that may have the means but not know where to start.
  • Green technology would improve due to sales and extra funding.
  • Most importantly, if it really caught on, the country would completely solve its energy crisis with every home producing more energy than they use and selling the rest to the slackers/moochers.

We could team up Al Gore with Tom Cruise and divert Scientology money into something useful, and stop spending it on creeping people out.

Now that, my friend, is a hell of an idea. Make Tom Cruise use his Scientolology contributions for the environment.

He should have to do that or pay double-taxes until he admits he's gay.
