		<description><![CDATA[I like your thoughts about solar power.  Truthfully though, I never thought of solar power as being so negative, and I still cannot think of it as negative until I do and find the appropriate research for myself to deem it so.  Nonetheless, I like your idea, if we can harness the natural sources on earth and use them, then why not?  Natural sources, such as, the wind and the water.  Do you know you can learn how to make your own wind power system...that actually works?]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Talk about doublethink!  They want us to believe that burning fossil fuels is causing global warming so we switch to solar, wind, geothermal, etc.  People’s perception of capturing solar energy for electricity production is squeaky clean.  So how could solar panels in space be any different?  Well I’ll tell you.



Solar energy is being diverted to the earth that would normally pass it by.



This idea certainly would cause man made global warming since the earth would be receiving more solar energy than it would naturally.  It doesn’t matter that it’s being converted to radio waves for transmission.  Energy is energy.  It cannot be created or destroyed.  Once that extra energy is here on earth, it’s up to the earth to rid itself of it.  There’s no debating that this idea would cause man made global warming.



There are already sufficient amounts of solar energy hitting the earth’s surface that we can harness.  What we need to work on is better energy storage.  There exists today upper and lower reservoirs where water is pumped up when demand is low, and allowed to flow down to produce electricity when the demand is high.



We need smaller residential type systems so that the stored energy is close to the consumer, reducing the need for transmission lines over long distances.  I don’t like the idea of conventional batteries because you have to dispose of them when they die.  A system of electrolyzing water, storage and fuel cell would be more desirable.



I really hope this idea gets shut down before any large amounts of money are wasted on it.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I remember back in Sim City 2000 (or maybe 3000) you could generate electricity using a space-based solar power generator that &quot;beamed&quot; the power back to earth as microwaves. Every once in a while the beam would &quot;miss&quot; and set fire to a building. This just reminded me of it, heh.



On a more serious note, I&#039;m also curious to know about the conversion losses, news releases always seem to leave out the most important parts (not necessarily CT&#039;s fault).]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I watched the movie. They mentioned the initial cost of launching the rocket but didn&#039;t mention the carbon created from it. I&#039;m sure in the long run it&#039;ll be well offset but I think they would do well to refute the strongest counter argument.



They also mentioned 6-8 times more efficient but I would appreciate if they would discuss the conversion losses. This is the third blog I&#039;ve seen this mentioned but nobody knows the conversion losses.]]></description>
