'WHAT'S AMAZING … IS THE SPEED OF DEPLOYMENT'
Simply put, the United States is facing an uncertain future where power shortages threaten our economy.
Japan and Korea leaders have declared national emergencies around these issues. They have spent billions over the past 20-30 years and plan to spend tens of billions. However, Nextbigfuture believes the programs have already been flawed and inadequat
This device was specially developed to remove the hangings on the power grid system which could cause power off in storming weather. Normally, in the street, you can see the people getting off the hangings or cutting off the tree branches with bucket
A breakthrough fusion experiment has produced a net gain in energy, for only the second time ever and with improved performance over the first successful attempt.
Arizona power companies aren't winging it - I don't know about you, but this immediately provoked a question for me: "Were the eye rolls at the state's largest utilities executed with the same sweep and rotation as my own?"

Will you Moooo like a good Corona Cow when the ranchers who are "the government" decree that businesses may reopen provided the workers - and customers - mask up?
