So far there is only three sources of baseload electricity coal, some gas, nuclear and hydro.

This photo shows an animal popping its head out at sunset off the coast of Florida.

We're often told though that only coal and nuclear plants can keep the lights on, because they're 24 7, whereas wind and solar power are variable, and hence supposedly unreliable.

Secondly, think about this.

Should we allow the same mistake to happen again?

Along the eastern seaboard, we're going to lead the nation in offshore wind.

Give me some sense of the numbers of new coal fire generating plants.

That's a big investment for a community.

Let's talk a little bit about how nuclear fission works.

This has to be a bridge to the point where you can get to wind, to the point where you can get to solar, to the point where you can get to nuclear and hopefully you won't build the next nuclear plant on a beautiful seashore next to an earthquake fault.

Power it generates heat,

Nuclear power plants supply 20 of the nation's electricity.

While you're waiting around for your nuclear, you have to run the regular electric power grid, which is mostly coal in the United States and around the world.

Now to charge the battery, we connect a source of electricity.

Power Consumption self powered

Iran is doing that right now.

Wind and solar can't help, because so far we don't have a way to store that energy.

All the world's photovoltaic solar panels generate as much electricity as two coal power plants.

The bricks are color coded.

That's a ton of power.

But her dream of Coal River Mountain Wind is her legacy.

The next thing is What about the footprint? Stewart mentioned the footprint.

I used to worry about the 10,000 year factor.

Now you don't find several thousand targets in that area.

So when somebody says,

The black color shows where earthquakes occurred in the past.

Immensity is also Van Gogh's theme in his second nightscape.

Nuclear power is used to generate electricity.

Wind is wonderful I love wind.

But instead of just showing us the information, we can take our finger and explore, and see, state by state, exactly how much wind potential there is.

In fact, every region of the country could do this.

Electricity.

The whole business is run on sustainable energy.

Here is an atomic power plant.

Our government is going to put in six new nuclear power stations.

If in the time that it took me to walk out here on this stage, some tens of megawatts of wind power stopped pouring into the grid, the difference would have to be made up from other generators immediately.

If the end game is global warming, they're doing great.

But one day of coal adds up to one hell of a lot of carbon dioxide in a normal one gigawatt coal fired plant.

Explosion force

From the generates to keep Itself running.

He breaks new ground by giving his sky the elemental power, effectively captured by other artists, of volcanoes avalanches and floods.
