A Brighter Future for Solar?
by Todd Irons
August 21st, 2007

For those who haven’t yet seen it, Forbes.com has compiled an excellent special report on its website about the blossoming solar energy market.

Forbes introduces this special section this way:

“Over the next 25 years solar is expected to be the fastest-growing alternative source of electric energy. With clean power in great demand, and fresh capital coming in from governments and capital markets, the solar economy is again humming with new materials, ideas, designs and business plans.”

I can do without the influx of government subsidies, thank you very much. But just imagine the effect a market-based cap-and-trade system that increases both demand and private capital for clean alternative energies would have on the already rising solar energy market in America?

You can see the Forbes.com special report “The Sunshine Economy” here.

To limit pollution and reduce our dependence on foreign energy sources we should:

Implement a market-based ‘Cap and Trade’ solution
Increase taxes and government subsidies
Buy tickets to see Leo’s latest flop
Do nothing and hope it will get better
Undecided, but we do need to find a solution
