Home Solar Power Discounts - One Block Off the Grid

Check this infographic from 1BOG.org showing dangerous nuclear facilities in the United States. You can click here for the much bigger original, featuring details about all the plants. Fortunately, most of the plants situated in high-population areas don't seem to be near high seismic risk areas...but not in Washington! Sure, there’s a 1 in 74,176 chance of an earthquake strong enough to cause damage to the reactor’s core in the United States but you never know.
 

The Fukushima disaster prompted Germany to phase out nuclear energy and completely overhaul its power system. Its official targets are to hit 35 percent renewable power by 2020 and 80 percent by 2050. The Green Party advocates for 100 percent by 2030.

It's a laudable, challenging goal. But it's one I wish our country could share.
