POPSNew thin-film solar panels easy to install These new solar panels look and sound easy to install. No price info here but links are provided for more info, including dealers and possible financial incentives available. With electricity prices going ever higher and solar power technology (and hopefully prices) improving, I hope to be able to go solar soon.

POPSChina will perhaps be ready to reduce greenhouse gas emission in the next year or so This must be a great step for the climate change regime if this will be true, since in the regime China has played a role as veto country, especially on behalf of G77+China. Here we can estimate that the last IPCC report, in which Chinese scientists participated better than before, played a important part in having the nation rethink on the issue. Throughout organising the report, naturally China has acquired knowledge more than before. I suspect this work made it possible for them to make a course correction.

POPSWhat do we do now against the acquired knowledge of climate change? The emergence of this issue in public isn't enough. The important thing is, what do we do next then? Also, you'll see this part in the article: The most important thing that professionals in sustainability will have to offer in the future is not ready-made solutions, but an ability to improvise, adapt, innovate, and dream up still more visionary-yet-feasible ideas about how to transform a global civilization or rescue ecosystems in trouble. The drastic climate change demands the scientists to innovate ideas, rather than to offer acquired solutions. They are required to express thought beyond the academic circles.

POPSProposal of CO2 storage with bio-energy No more patience. Due to this characteristics of the issue, joint responsibility, while some countries keep denying to make action, the others are forced to be at risk. Those that really think this is important issue, they're expected to make action without joining deniers.
