A path better than wind or solar to 'going green' energy.

Gregg Braden explains why solar and wind may not be the best choices for green energy, and suggests a viable alternative that can be implemented relatively easily.

Gregg Braden’s Science, Policy & Politics Series is BACK!!! Episode 3. In this episode, Gregg Braden explains why green energy is not so green in the production or disposal, and the well-kept secret from the Manhattan Project that revealed an abundant mineral in the Earth's crust that can be used to produce electricity with zero greenhouse gasses, and is a proven technology that the US used between the 1960s and 1980s

Fighting Fire With Fire - Indigenous Cultural Burning Practices in Australia

There are ways to do controlled burns in a harmonious, healthy way. There is much wisdom here. 

Two paragraphs are quoted, follow link at bottom to read the full article on DailyGood.org. 

Determining the ‘right fire’ requires an intimate knowledge of the environment, and careful observation. Traditionally, when the fire season was about to start, the Elders would put in their first burns based on relational indicators as to what vegetation was ready to burn, when animals were breeding, which plants were fruiting – ‘reading the land’. “If the grass feels cold, there is too much moisture; if it feels warm and dry, it is ready to burn. You look for the right ignition point and light up respectfully, not putting too much fire in – just enough to let it burn. Burning too late in the season with too much heat won’t get the best regrowth response and the trees will get burnt, the country will end up pretty bare throughout the year.”

The Elders taught Victor that there is a narrow window of time to produce the right fire: to apply the right heat for the soils so that the fire burns cool and in a circle, and does not destroy the trees or the canopies.

 "If you look at it from an economic perspective no business would want a complex landscape like this because it's way too much maintenance, but what you have to do is turn the maintenance over to the residents, and then they do it: they get joy; it's an antidepressant; it's a way of creating food; it's a way of creating community; so you have to do it in a certain way, but it's definitely a lot more work than the typical grass and shrub landscape for sure."
