Any Solutions?<br />9<br />Energy Efficiency and Renewables = The Twin Pillars of Sustainability<br />

10.
Electric vehicles can help us shift from dirty to cleaner fuel sources<br />10<br />In June of 2010, Tesla (TSLA) held an IPO for a company focused on high-end electric cars<br />By the end of 2011, over 9 models of electric car will be available to the mass market<br />

11.
Wind energy can lower our dependence on coal, natural gas, and nuclear power<br />11<br />45GW expected installation in 2011 according to Bloomberg New Energy Finance <br />

12.
Solar is a cleaner and safer power source<br />12<br />2010 was best year ever for solar PV installations, maintaining 40% CAGR<br />

13.
Energy Efficiency is biggest, fastest, and cheapest, strategy to reduce global warming pollution <br />13<br />“Available untapped efficiency can save half U.S. oil and gas, and three-fourths of electricity, at one-sixth today’s average cost of buying them” –Amory Lovins<br />

What do we want energy for?<br />We want the servicesthat energy provides:<br />Facebook<br />iPods<br />Hot showers<br />Mobility<br />Warmth or coolth<br />Cooking<br />Light<br />Etc….<br />20<br />

21.
So, how can we can get the same service but use less energy to get it?<br />ENERGY EFFICIENCY<br />21<br />

22.
What’s the difference between energy efficiency and energy conservation? <br />Energy Conservation<br />Energy conservation is turning down the thermostat in the winter<br />(Less service & Less energy)<br />Energy Efficiency<br />22<br />Energy efficiency is using a more efficient furnace<br />(Same service & Less energy)<br />

23.
What’s the difference between energy efficiency and energy conservation? <br />Energy Conservation<br />Energy conservation is saving energy by watching less TV<br />(Less service & Less energy)<br />Energy Efficiency<br />23<br />Energy efficiency is saving energy by watching a program on an efficient TV<br />(Same service & Less energy)<br />
