Hi again,

I'm asking wether it happens, if I annoy you all, with writing on the topic but better having tried than to do nothing at all.

I just got attention to a person living near my home town in Hammelburg/Germany: Hans-Josef Fell. Knowing him very long, he's a very radical politician of the german greens bringing his vision 100% renewable energies into the world. He said that he did not dream about that, he is doing it. For example in his private house. Fully autonomous/renewable in terms of energy. He had his electric "car" (a TWIKE back then, 1994?) before their producer officially sold it.

He was person bringing the Renewable Energy Sources Act into Reality, enabling profits with investments in renewable energies, which were massively boosted therefore. The act was taken down again by other political parties. But it's too late. The world saw what had happend. The act was copied by over 100 other countries, especially China!

In 2006 he founded the Energy Watch Group for looking at the fossil resources, the coming shortage and the possible massive change to renewables. He serves as the organizations president. It's network of politicians and scientists who want are willing to drive the change. Currently the organization publicated a detailed study for 100% renewable Energy in Europe. It's possible. It's a lot of work, but there's no magic needed at all. The tech is there. Will to do it is the only thing that's needed. We're over the peak of oil. In the next few years there's a rising gap in the supply of fuel, which is even admitted by those who fought viciously against a change away from oil.

Further I saw him in a trailer to Climate Warriors: YouTube (Cool: Terminator is Riding a Bike!) He's truly a climate warrior, I'm absolutely proud of!

He calls for all people to start to engage. Grassroots movement. Australias goverment is actively turning against climate protection. But the people are very different. Due to the activities and investments of the people Australia is making most progress in the world. The situation seems to be similar in the U. S.

Everybody's needed!

Regards,
stomp

Update

Fell mentioned that Warren Buffet, 3rd richest man abandoned investments of esso and another fossil fuel org and heads energy investments towards renewables. This is the beginning of the end of fossil energy generation.(the interview is from last year)

Nigeria is planning to build a one Gigawatts Solar Plant.

Fell is very excited what massive changes are going on in the renewable world. The only question for him is, if mankind is fast enough to stop the climate change bullet(my wording).

FEATURES

       Features as described on the fossil home page.

       1.   Bug  Tracking And Wiki - In addition to doing distributed version control like Git and Mercurial, Fossil also supports distributed bug
	      tracking, distributed wiki, and a distributed blog mechanism all in a single integrated package.

       2.  Web Interface - Fossil has a built-in and easy-to-use web interface that simplifies project tracking and  promotes  situational  aware-
	      ness.  Simply  type  "fossil  ui"  from  within  any  check-out and Fossil automatically opens your web browser in a page that gives
	      detailed graphical history and status information on that project.

       3.  Autosync - Fossil supports "autosync" mode which helps to keep projects moving forward by reducing the amount of needless  forking  and
	      merging often associated with distributed projects.

       4.  Self-Contained - Fossil is a single stand-alone executable that contains everything needed to do configuration management. Installation
	      is trivial: simply download a precompiled binary for Linux, Mac, or Windows and put it on your $PATH. Easy-to-compile source code is
	      available  for  users  on  other platforms. Fossil sources are also mostly self-contained, requiring only the "zlib" library and the
	      standard C library to build.

       5.  Simple Networking - Fossil uses plain old HTTP (with proxy support) for all network communications, meaning that  it  works	fine  from
	      behind  restrictive  firewalls.  The protocol is bandwidth efficient to the point that Fossil can be used comfortably over a dial-up
	      internet connection.

       6.  CGI Enabled - No server is required to use fossil. But a server does make collaboration easier. Fossil  supports  three  different  yet
	      simple  server configurations. The most popular is a 2-line CGI script. This is the approach used by the self-hosting fossil reposi-
	      tories.

       7.  Robust & Reliable - Fossil stores content using an enduring file format in an SQLite database so that transactions are atomic  even	if
	      interrupted  by  a power loss or system crash. Furthermore, automatic self-checks verify that all aspects of the repository are con-
	      sistent prior to each commit. In over three years of operation, no work has ever been lost after having been committed to  a  Fossil
	      repository.
