Another argument for renewable energy

Coming off my earlier post about Khosla’s oil company tax initiative, I thought I would post something that supports renewable energy without prejudice. I found what has to be one of the more interesting cases in favor of renewable energy, and on top of that from a very unlikely place… Iraq.
Commanders have done the math and realized that, if they could use renewable forms of energy at bases in western Iraq, fewer truckloads of fuel would be required, and more combat troops out there could be chasing hostile forces. As a result, the commanders are calling for immediate shipments of solar panels, wind turbine generators and fuel cell generators.
