It takes Canada to talk about renewable energy!!!!
Canadian P.M. talks about Renewable energy w/ Bush .

Excellent article from a German paper dated 12/6/2004.   http://www.heise.de/tp/r4/artikel/18/18953/1.html

A conversation with Brian Apple of Changing World Technologies who was invited by the Canadian P.M. to meet with the P.M. and Bush in Canada.  Changing World Technologies has a process to convert just about anything, from turkey remains to sewage to trash, into oil, water, minerals, natural gas and carbon.   They currently have a 250-ton plant that turns turkey offal into oil at approx. $15/barrel.  The minerals created from the process are used for fertilizer.  check them out:   http://www.changingworldtech.com/

3. Very interesting
I've heard of this company before. I truly don't know what to think-- what they say they can do is unquestionably valuable, but so far they're restricting themselves to two plants, and keeping their trade secrets *real* close to the vest. Is it because they fear for their intellectual property and/or market share under an oil kleptocracy-- or are they an elaborate con?

4. Naturally. NAFTA gives the US the 'right' to take their oil in the event
of a shortage or crisis.

6. Yeah, Bush will NEVER do anything about renewable energy....
... I'm active with the Sierra Club and the Surfrider Foundation being I'm in Cal, and this president is unbelievably bad. He'll never change...

I'm sure you all know, but just in case here's a couple of good sites that explain why Bush will never make good on anything he might have told Canadian PM Martin...
