Of course the Karnataka government is going to pay for it. Didn't think so.

So convince the tribes to cover their tribal lands with solar sels and get rich selling power to the stupid country surrounding them. That kind of argument is meaningless unless you can actually make it work, 24/7, 365 days a year, for less than the alternatives. Show me one, just one, solar or wind power plant with more than a kilomegawatt capacity that has actually done that for two years.

Oil has little to nothing to do with heating water. I hope everyone has a conventional backup or really enjoys cold showers. -- Jim Pennino Remove .spam.sux to reply. |
