The MOST important actions on prevention of global warming are NOT
being done:

1. Research into TIDAL POWER stations: America's Eastern and
Western seaboards offer almost unlimited tidal power.
The only such station in the Western Hemisphere is in Nova Scotia
and that province already produces 12% of its electric power from
renewable sources.

2.Research into low cost electric cars and high speed rechargeable
batteries. Tesla has already an excellent vehicle, but at too high
a cost. 

3.Prepare for recharge stations at service stations and consider
an electric pickup through a groove in the main streets of cities.
(Like the old trams).

4.Put an immediate ban on all new coal powered power stations, and
phase out all of the old ones. Put an immediate ban on all mountain
top blast mining for coal and on all industrial river pollution. 

5.Put an immediate ban on any new nuclear power stations, and
nuclear weapons. Start to research better ways of disposing of
nuclear waste. 

6.Start the construction of large wind farms and solar farms. (The
latter are best located in the southern desert states).
Denmark has shown the feasibility of building wind farms over the
sea with turbines supported by pylons driven into the seabed. 

7. Careful construction of dams for hydro power using technology
to prevent a harmful impact on wildlife and drinkable water
supply.

8. Accelerating the date requiring increased mileage rules for gas
powered vehicles.

9.Planting new forests and cutting back on lumber industry
deforestation. 

10.Aid to foreign nations in need to achieve the above goals.

Sincerely,

Ian Campbell Cree, MB(Hons.), MS, FRCS(Eng.& C.), FACS, LRCP
