Wind energy is increasingly cost-competitive ... and will clearly become more so," said Robert Hornung, president of the Canadian Wind Energy Association, but development depends on a "stable policy environment. "Canada's starting pretty far behind a lot of other countries, and even with the type of growth that I'm talking about Canada will move maybe to the middle of the pack," behind countries that regard wind power as "an industrial opportunity ... a key technology for the 21st century," he said.

Wind turbines are very compatible with agricultural practices, and this has led companies such as John Deere to actively assist farmers in developing wind as a way of diversifying their incomes. Although a wind farm can cover a wide area, the turbines themselves generally only occupy five per cent of the land area, leaving the remaining 95 per cent for conventional uses. Farmers routinely graze cattle or farm crops right up to the base of the turbines. While some have expressed concern over potential conflicts between wind turbines and crop dusters, experience has shown that it is possible for the two to operate side by side. The energy production of a single wind turbine varies (naturally) with wind speed. Unfortunately, this has led some to believe that wind is an "intermittent" ener...

China has experienced pressing energy shortages in recent years, and Beijing has intensified its efforts to secure China's energy supply through both increased domestic production and external expansion. In this paper, I first analyze China's global quest for energy by looking at the correlation between China's economic growth and its energy security concerns. I then examine the implications of China's "go-out" strategy through two sets of case studies. I argue that China's global search for energy is primarily driven by its rapid economic growth, out of insecurity rather than a master plan to dominate the world, and that China's energy security issues have multiple implications beyond simple economic concerns. Finally, I recommend a forward-looking engagement policy to be adapted by Ca...

The roof system used at Millennium Water is an extensive 'blanket' type of system developed over the past 40 years in Germany by Xero Flor. It incorporates the vegetation, water retaining fleece, drainage barrier and root barrier in one. The plants are grown in fields, then rolled up and transported to the rooftop and installed. It's a lightweight system that can be used in many homes. A green roof will outlast traditional roofs by decades. Since the actual roof membrane is shielded from the sun's UV rays, and protected from wind, temperature extremes and thermal stress of a freeze-thaw cycle, the roof will last longer. That means all the cost of re-roofing (consumer cost, cost to the environment to create new roofing materials, and the cost to dump the old roof into a landfill) are red...
