How Much Of A Risk Is The World Taking If Iran Builds Nuclear War Heads? Are The Purported Iranian Nuclear War Risks "Bad" Or "Very Bad" Or Worse?
We definitely don't want Iran to develop nuclear weapons of any type. But let's consider that history shows (at least so far) less developed countries have never initiated a nuclear war as far as we know. Keep in mind the Iranian nuclear risk is clearly high, but also keep in mind that it might not spell the end of the world.
This is simply posted to provide a slimmer of hope that things may end up being OK after all. Only time will tell...

Focus on peace while doing all you can to convince Iran to drop their silly nuclear program.

Is Taxing Renewable Energy The Solution?
Funny. Governments spend billions supporting alternative energy. Yet they also tax alternative energy projects in other ways. Giving tax credits on the one hand, then charging taxes later creates more government bureaucracy as well.
Examples For How Governments In Your Region Or Country May Tax Those Reducing The Carbon Foot Print:
• House construction which is considerably more energy efficient may likely pay the same construction permit tax as an energy wasting house with equal construction costs and size.
• Sales tax (VAT) on purchases of renewable energy technology.
• Permit fees to install renewable energy technology.
Innovation Institute in Fairfield, Solano County, California pays extensive taxes on other matters to launch energy saving inventions as well.
This interesting post explains how the Fairfield city is unfair to green technology innovators by indirectly cutting off innovator's cash flow. Guess where the Fairfield city sends their money? The Fairfield old boy network naturally.

Electricity Meters Can Reduce Energy Consumption Hence Cut Need For Nuclear Power
California Electricity Meters Can Reduce Energy Consumption. It Does This By "Asking" Consumers & Businesses To Cut Back Usage Before A Black Out Is Predicted. Hence PG&E Can Cut Needs For More Nuclear Power To Cover Peak Periods.
The smart meters can really help. But people can also opt out of using a smart meter at a hefty price.
