Forum Post: Green or not? What is the Cost?

Posted 12 years ago on Dec. 30, 2011, 11:17 a.m. EST by DKAtoday (33802) from Coon Rapids, MN
This content is user submitted and not an official statement

How expensive is death and disease? You know the things related to pollution? You know Mercury, Arsenic, carbon particulates etc.etc. or the melting of the worlds ice caps and the raising of the sea level up 60' or more. What cost for those driven out of their homes as they go under water? What cost for those needing to house floodwater immigrants? What cost to those dying of thirst because their glacial water source has melted away. What cost of polluting the Ground water by drilling for oil or fracking for gas? What cost lubricating the pressure points along a faultline with the fracking process fluids?

Yes indeed what cost is worth supporting Oil, Gas & Coal or Supporting a clean energy program.

People can weigh the costs and decide what they prefer. In all I think they will decide that health and a healthy environment are worth pushing forward truly green energy and fuel.

also a thank you from Sen. Bernie Sanders ( please share )

Dear Friend,

Thank you for signing the petition supporting The Saving American Democracy Amendment. The outpouring of support from you and tens of thousands of others sends a loud and clear message that the American people want to undo the disastrous 5-4 Citizens United Supreme Court decision. We must stop corporations from spending unlimited sums of money, without disclosure, to influence Americans elections. American democracy is not for sale.

Reverse the Citizens United decision.The Constitution is an extraordinary document. It has served our country well for more than two centuries. In my view, however, this is one of those rare times when a constitutional amendment is the only way to save the democracy that our founders created.

Passing a constitutional amendment will not be easy and it will not happen tomorrow. It is a long and difficult process and there will be many bumps along the road. Like other great struggles in our modern history – women's rights, civil rights, environmental protection, etc. – we will need to bring millions of Americans together to demand that Congress and state legislatures represent the needs of ordinary Americans, and not just the wealthy and powerful.

The promise of democracy -- the essential democracy this amendment is directed at protecting – is that the ultimate power in our nation rests with its people, and not with corporations or even elected officials. Our joint effort to defend this nation's democratic electoral process is something that speaks to what being an American is about, and something we should be very proud of.

I hope you ask your friends to sign the petition. And if you aren't already a subscriber to The Bernie Buzz, we'll sign you up for the electronic newsletter to keep you posted on what's happening to the amendment and other news in Washington. (If you do not wish to receive the Bernie Buzz, you may unsubscribe below.)

Sincerely, Bernie U.S. Senator Bernie Sanders

I was just talking to someone else on the comment board yesterday about the movie Erin Brockovitch and how the town of Hinkley, CA was lied to by PG&E. They told those people that their was some chromium in their water, but that it was a good for them. Meanwhile, Hinkley's water supply really had Chromium 6 in it (the most toxic kind of Chromium). Those poor people got all sorts of cancers and ailments because of PG&E wrecklessness. This is not the first time something like this happened and it won't be the last.

Hinkley that was a terrible incident. I wonder how many poisoning survivors there still are?

Hey Wind, good to hear from you. I caught your post yesterday but have not looked at it yet. Still in recovery mode. Thank you for forwarding the link, I have saved it to look at later. I have not been that active today, I've only stopped in a couple of time to see what was going on, looks like I picked another good moment. If I don't catch you later - Have a happy new year. I'll be stopping back in later.

[-] 1 points by Windsofchange (1044) 12 years ago

Yes, Hinkley was terrible. I don't know how many people died from terminal illness due to chromium 6 contamination. That I would like to know, I will research it a little later.

If I don't see you on this comment board--I wish you a Happy New Year as well. Here is hoping for a better year. Peace.

If the OWS movement promoted FCEL to the public the movement would become credible because it solves the crazy energy policy that is controlled by the media propaganda for the nuclear power industry, coal, and oil.

All the car companies have fuel cell vehicles. We need to mandate the end of internal combustion engines the exact same way that leaded gas was stopped by government mandate.

Buy the stocks of FCEL (Fuel Cell Energy) and BLDP (Ballard Power) to get the best 2 companies with a direct fuel cell business. I have researched this industry for 5 years. Both stocks are rock bottom now.

There will be a huge move to an energy policy that uses fuel cells in the place of nuclear power and fossil fuels if the OWS movement people invest their own capital into stocks like FCEL and then profit from their own demands from government to change the crazy, stupid policy that exists. That is capitalism and democracy working in the rational way that makes sense.

The reason there has been the irrational behavior is because of the media propaganda that has brainwashed people to function against their own self interest and believe there is no way to change.

Thanks for the information on FuelCell Energy, Inc. I'm just doing some exploration but it looks to be very interesting.

Check this out a real fuel cell company. Who knew?

[-] 1 points by stevemiller (1062) 12 years ago

I knew because I studied all the companies in the industry for years. Fuel Cell Energy FCEL is the one to buy right now at $.88

I will start a suit against them because they ripped off $90,000,000 of the stockholders money. We will force their insurance company to pay the $90,000,000 back. Its $.88 because they have sold stock and diluted the value to keep operating the company. But their product works like a charm.

Take my advice and load up at this price. It won't be available for long. Read my letter: DIVINE ENERGY – THANK GOD Shift The Price Risk Bridgeport, CT 06605 Steve Miller Phone 203-612-1987

Chip Bottone President and Chief Executive Officer FuelCell Energy, Inc. 3 Great Pasture Road Danbury, CT 06813-1305

Dear Mr. Bottone:

If you refuse to discuss a remedy for the following problems this week, I will begin to search for an attorney who will file a stockholder derivative suit that will force you to resolve these problems by court order. The response I have received for my good faith approach to simple problems that are costing the shareholders suicidal dilution and a counterproductive marketing approach that has wasted $90,696,000 in the past five years has been unprofessional and bizarre. Fuel cells solve the energy policy All of the pollution, poison, and dangers from using nuclear power, coal, and oil are solved by the use of fuel cells. The public relations (propaganda) lies by the nuclear power, coal, and oil industries that constantly claim that they are safe and clean are ignored by the small fuel cell industry that will be destined to stay small if they continue failing to inform the public that fuel cells are the proven solution to the terrible risks from nuclear power, coal, and oil drilling. The recent Fukishima nuclear explosions we watched every day on TV killed 20,000 people, damaged the entire economy of Japan, and spread dangerous radiation for miles.

The NRC (Nuclear Regulatory Commission) and the Energy Department are both very cozy with the industries they monitor. None of their scientists and senior staff people ever recommends the solution that fuel cells are able to solve right now with current technology that is used very sparingly to replace the power plants that have caused explosions and spent fuel that can't be disposed of safely. There is virtually not a peep from the fuel cell industry to promote their solution.

Let's not forget the BP oil spill that poured oil into our food supply and then to make that worse BP was allowed by our government to dump massive chemicals they called a dispersant that masked the oil by breaking it into small particles that were less obvious to see. Let's not forget the daily explosions they call mountain top recovery that destroys the clean mountain water supply when the terrible chemicals from the explosions are dumped purposely to eliminate the cost of mining the coal before it is burned and poisons are air. The entire fuel cell industry completely ignores its own remedy.

FuelCell Energy (FCEL) has perfected the best process in the industry. The company has spent $17,150 $17,194 $19,968 $18,625 $17,759 on its annual selling expenses but has completely failed to make the public aware of the solution that is quietly stated to shareholders who are the few people who know their product solves the enormous risks that continue exploding poison into our food and air we breathe. It would be rational for citizens to demand that the products by FCEL replace the entire power industry on a round the clock operation but the FCEL management has failed to use the $90,696,000 it has spent. That is not a small sum of money to have been wasted during the past five years.

During the past 10 years the price of FCEL shares have dropped from $46 down to $.87 per share today 12/29/11. Recently the FCEL management diluted the net worth when it sold in July 2010 an underwritten public offering of 27,600,000 shares of common stock at a price to the public of $1.25 per share.

Net proceeds to the Company from the offering, after deducting the underwriters’ discounts and commissions and offering expenses, were approximately $32.1 million.

On January 10, 2011 FCEL announced entry into a definitive agreement with an institutional investor to sell an aggregate of 10,160,428 units at a negotiated price of $1.87 per unit, with each unit consisting of (i) one share of its common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Common Stock”) and (ii) one warrant to purchase 1.0 share of Common Stock, in a registered direct offering for gross proceeds of $19.0 million. The net proceeds from the sale of the units, after deducting the placement agent fees and other estimated offering expenses, will be approximately $17.8 million.

FCEL intends to use the proceeds from this offering for product development, project financing, expansion of manufacturing capacity, and general corporate purposes. There is no mention for the necessary public relations that would inform the public and the government of the energy policy solution created by FCEL. $90,696,000 has been wasted and the net worth of FCEL has been diluted in a corporate suicide.

First what you do is take an electrolytic cell. If you don't know what that is, it is a device that takes electricity, runs it through a liquid, (In this case water), and breaks it down into its component parts. The hydrogen and oxygen can be separated so that just the hydrogen goes to the hydrogen fuel producing electricity and running an electric car.

Do you keep your collection in a garage?

If so, close all of the doors and windows turn off any air handling units, go inside with a comfy chair, perhaps a cocktail. Start up all of your classics, sit-down and enjoy your drink, continue in this manner for a couple hours or a couple days. Please let us know how you enjoy the experience or have your next of kin do it for you, please record the experience so others can enjoy it as well. Thank you.

Green jobs are ridiculous, since the only green jobs that turn a profit are in the software sector. Computers cut employees and workload. Coal, Oil, Gold, mining, farming, and other such academics turn profit and raises jobs. Man made global warming is a myth, and anyone in the science community that doesn't carry an agenda for state funding can tell you that the earth is cooling off because we are finally exiting out of an ice age.

[-] 2 points by JoeTheFarmer (2654) 12 years ago

There is no reason we cannot come up with technology to provide cleaner energy. Even if global warming is not real there is nothing goo about pumping our CO2 and Sulfur Dioxide into the air. There are dead lakes in the northeast cause by SO2 emitted by these plants.

Since 50% of electricity is created by coal and oil we need to invest in technology that makes the process cleaner. What we build depends on where it is being used.

Solar makes sense in the desert southwest but not in the Northwest where it rains 70% of the year.

Geothermal makes sense in the West where the heat of the earth is close to the surface. There is an virtually unlimited supply once you create the power plant.

Coal makes sense in the east where there is plenty of coal. The Glassification and Super Critical processes reduce emissions by more than 75%.

Current wind technology makes the least sense because to get the power of one coal plant you would need wind turbines 300 feet apart covering the entire state of Rhode Island. Personally I find these turbines ugly bordering on the Pennsylvania mountain tops.

There are some things I think that the government can do to help. Providing incentives to install scrubbers in power plants or even covering the cost would be one thing. Subsidizing ethanol on the other hand is a big mistake since it takes more energy to produce a gallon of ethanol that what we get out of it.

If we declared war on our energy needs rather than on other countries we would spend spend billions in fixing coal, creating geothermal plants, hydro power... and still save trillions.

I think you need to rethink your statement about man's contribution to the green house effect. Scientists are looking at cores ( drill samples ) that go back millions of years. They are looking into the content of green house gases over the time period evidenced in these core samples and they are finding, that even during previous warm earth cycles that there was not the level of green house gasses that we have right now today. We may still be on a natural warming cycle, but how much are we affecting it? How much are we accelerating it? How much different will this warming cycle be because of our contribution?

This does not even get into how we are poisoning ourselves and the land, ground water, surface water, air. the food chain. We have got to stop killing ourselves with needless pollution.

This is also a out right blunt lie as well. Since The science community does not have an accurate whole historical record of high concentration gas levels, they can only make poorly hypothesis assumptions of such levels. Because of this, no such accurate claim can be bestowed as truth.

In turn fraudulent statements of such and unproven theories currently consent to fiction.

Get better informed.

Watch the programs for yourself. Check out the time lapse photography.

Playing now, Nova on PBS: Extreme Ice

Next: Secrets Beneath the Ice

No, you need to get better informed, Nova and PBS get funding from governmental and scientific grant communities and hold bias claims, read scientific journals please, not fly by night television shows on popular networks, this will only rot your brain.

What you mean the supporters of Oil and Coal and Gas are putting this stuff out?

Who woulda figured that they would do that! I mean throwing dirt at their own interests.

How diabolical of them.

Tobacco corporations did the same as well, activity promoting their product as cancerous and helping to create regulations and government taxation on such product once the public had received word that the science community had proven smoking cigarettes were cancerous.

It is a known fact through paper research that the very own tobacco corporations also own the majority of stock in cancer research institutions that governmental cigarette tax dollars go too.

Ending the process by killing two birds with one stone and receiving double the profit on both lanes.

Have you ever read who owns a large majority of green energy patents, you might just be surprised.

Your reply does not comment on the fact of the truth about global warming. I have supplied you with plenty of reading material on the subject and there is more ( since you claim to like to get your facts from articles rather than programs ). Don't go running off subject with tobacco, we are not talking about that industry here. Here we are confronting the effects and reality of global warming and mans contribution to it.

[-] 0 points by NightShade (163) 12 years ago

No, you are confronting the effects and reality of global warming and mans contribution to it. I am simply stating the error in your statements.

[-] 0 points by DKAtoday (33802) from Coon Rapids, MN 12 years ago

You have not presented any errors. You have presented your inability to confront the truth.

Denial is not a river in Egypt.

If you can't believe the evidence presented to your own eye's, in a Time Lapse Photography Series, if you can't garner truth out of published scientific articles, then I'm afraid you may as well go back to sleep. Sorry for disturbing your slumber.

All I see here is your willfulness in writing dull repeatable catch phrases that are not at all amusing to me. If you were really serious you would not try to converse the subject with saturated non-sense nor informational articles you had found on the first page in google search.

You would be providing real data and real information on the truth of what is really causing the effect of global warming and this is because of the cooling off phase of an ancientry ice age and the only fact among the dribble you have produced here on the forums today.

DIVINE ENERGY – THANK GOD Shift The Price Risk Bridgeport, CT 06605 Steve Miller Phone 203-612-1987

December 29, 2011

Chip Bottone President and Chief Executive Officer FuelCell Energy, Inc. 3 Great Pasture Road Danbury, CT 06813-1305

Dear Mr. Bottone:

If you refuse to discuss a remedy for the following problems this week, I will begin to search for an attorney who will file a stockholder derivative suit that will force you to resolve these problems by court order. The response I have received for my good faith approach to simple problems that are costing the shareholders suicidal dilution and a counterproductive marketing approach that has wasted $90,696,000 in the past five years has been unprofessional and bizarre. Fuel cells solve the energy policy All of the pollution, poison, and dangers from using nuclear power, coal, and oil are solved by the use of fuel cells. The public relations (propaganda) lies by the nuclear power, coal, and oil industries that constantly claim that they are safe and clean are ignored by the small fuel cell industry that will be destined to stay small if they continue failing to inform the public that fuel cells are the proven solution to the terrible risks from nuclear power, coal, and oil drilling. The recent Fukishima nuclear explosions we watched every day on TV killed 20,000 people, damaged the entire economy of Japan, and spread dangerous radiation for miles.

The NRC (Nuclear Regulatory Commission) and the Energy Department are both very cozy with the industries they monitor. None of their scientists and senior staff people ever recommends the solution that fuel cells are able to solve right now with current technology that is used very sparingly to replace the power plants that have caused explosions and spent fuel that can't be disposed of safely. There is virtually not a peep from the fuel cell industry to promote their solution.

Let's not forget the BP oil spill that poured oil into our food supply and then to make that worse BP was allowed by our government to dump massive chemicals they called a dispersant that masked the oil by breaking it into small particles that were less obvious to see. Let's not forget the daily explosions they call mountain top recovery that destroys the clean mountain water supply when the terrible chemicals from the explosions are dumped purposely to eliminate the cost of mining the coal before it is burned and poisons are air. The entire fuel cell industry completely ignores its own remedy.

FuelCell Energy (FCEL) has perfected the best process in the industry. The company has spent $17,150 $17,194 $19,968 $18,625 $17,759 on its annual selling expenses but has completely failed to make the public aware of the solution that is quietly stated to shareholders who are the few people who know their product solves the enormous risks that continue exploding poison into our food and air we breathe. It would be rational for citizens to demand that the products by FCEL replace the entire power industry on a round the clock operation but the FCEL management has failed to use the $90,696,000 it has spent. That is not a small sum of money to have been wasted during the past five years.

During the past 10 years the price of FCEL shares have dropped from $46 down to $.87 per share today 12/29/11. Recently the FCEL management diluted the net worth when it sold in July 2010 an underwritten public offering of 27,600,000 shares of common stock at a price to the public of $1.25 per share.

Net proceeds to the Company from the offering, after deducting the underwriters’ discounts and commissions and offering expenses, were approximately $32.1 million.

On January 10, 2011 FCEL announced entry into a definitive agreement with an institutional investor to sell an aggregate of 10,160,428 units at a negotiated price of $1.87 per unit, with each unit consisting of (i) one share of its common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Common Stock”) and (ii) one warrant to purchase 1.0 share of Common Stock, in a registered direct offering for gross proceeds of $19.0 million. The net proceeds from the sale of the units, after deducting the placement agent fees and other estimated offering expenses, will be approximately $17.8 million.

FCEL intends to use the proceeds from this offering for product development, project financing, expansion of manufacturing capacity, and general corporate purposes. There is no mention for the necessary public relations that would inform the public and the government of the energy policy solution created by FCEL. $90,696,000 has been wasted and the net worth of FCEL has been diluted in a corporate suicide. Regards, Steve Miller

Fuel cells are great. It is actually fairly old technology. Fuel cells will not need propping up by government subsidies, like ethanol, phony Solyndra, and wind that is an eye sore, and kills large numbers of migratory birds. Fuel cells are efficient, clean, safe, and can do away with much of the electric power grid. This is the problem, really, as public utilities are profit seekers, and when people purchase stand alone cells, utilities are left out of the equation. We own property well off the grid, and were told 10 years ago by the local utility that fuel cells would be available within 18 months. It still hasn't happened. The way to get around this ismto purchase one on your own.
