11. FOSSIL COAL STATUS QUO GHG FROM COAL BASED POWER PLANTS IN CHINA ARE MAJOR CONECERNS FOR CLIMATE CHANGE US has sufficient coal reserves for 200+ years The issue is cleaner energy 70% of China’s energy comes from Coal, the only fossil fuel China can tap cheaply internally. At the projected rate of consumption, China may run out of coal in less than 50 years. Very soon China will have to import Coal too. China is aggressively setting up its footprint in South Africa and Australia to tap its resources. On a given day in 2008, 25% of pollution in LA comes from China The world’s coal energy reserves are two times more than oil and gas reserves combined. USA needs to lead the world in finding innovative solutions to find clean coal technologies as the owner of world’s largest coal reserves .

15. A STATUS QUO GLOBAL ENERGY SNAPSHOT What is the Take Away from the last Few Slides? Climate change is an EFFECT The way we use our energy is the CAUSE. Can we change the way we use our energy to create a vibrant economic growth engine AND cure climate change? Our future generation is depending on us. You treat the cause to change the effect We need a National Comprehensive Vision and Deployment Strategy. We need stretch goals to overcome our severe Economic & Environmental crisis. Stretch goals will take people out of their comfort zone, but has a deeply researched deployable strategy designed to overcome crisis of gigantic proportions….

16. A STATUS QUO GLOBAL ENERGY SNAPSHOT What is the Take Away from the last Few Slides? Because of the policies of the past, USA does not have a comprehensive E nergy Vision & Deployment Strategy that realistically tackle the looming E nvironment Disaster, while reviving the E conomy We cannot change the past, but we can certainly control our destiny, even at this late hour. We just need resolve as a nation to take on stretch goals. To start the process we adapted the model from the German Advisory Council for Global Change, who seem to have one of the most aggressive vision for a comprehensive energy initiative to tackle climate change. WE NEED TO RAPIDLY TRANSITION TOWARDS CLEAN SUSTAINABLE ENERGY. WHERE IS USA SEI COMPARED TO THE REST OF THE WORLD?

Twenty years from now instead of fighting over a dwindling resource like fossil based oil to generate our energy that increases our pollution levels to the point of no return for our planet, we generate more and more clean, sustainable energy because it actually helps clean up the environment while fueling our economic growth. inv VEST plans to transform this imagination into reality. Imagine a paradigm shift: We believe the 30 million student community in USA in high schools, colleges and universities can be GAME CHANGERS in the way we currently generate and use our energy and help in the rapid transition to clean sustainable energy initiatives.
