If the equivalent amt of money was spent on the various governments on defense was spent into furthering research in maximizing Solar energy, we by now may have a viable source of power.
Why haven't we developed the ultimate solar cell by now? Why isn't it in each household roof by now.
If more money was spent in renewable energies as solar/wind/geo thermal/bio then maybe we wouldn't be in this predicament we're in now. Its not like this is news, its been in our faces for at least 20yrs.
Has solar technology currently reached its maximum theorectical limits known to man at this moment in time. I mean, if they could develop new materials in the 60's for the Mercury/Gemini/Apollo projects surely you'd think the same effort could be done for renewable energies to make it work efficiently.
