Recent Interview and Overview of Global Trends

  • Don't forget my interviews, videos and broadcasts on my media page.

  • I suggest you spend some time reviewing links at the Contrary Invester Cafe web site. There's more there than interviews from me. From changes in Congress and the Constitution to ways of handling the devaluing dollar to skyrocketing commodity prices, there's a lot of information to help you profit from these changes.

  • If you're a small farmer or rancher and want to get a ton of information on small renewable energy systems, I suggest the Free Classes at the Eduhosting.org web site (which supports the WindGenZen educational web site). Here you will learn eerything from carving wind generator blades to building a solar cooker out of foil and a cardboard box, to desulfating batteries, distilling water for a home, as was pioneered in NEw Mexico and more...much more. There's no time like the present to start learning new tricks to save energy and even if some of the dire warnings I've described don't come to pass, its good for the planet and good for your wallet, so I suggest you start right away. And if what I've described in these pages does come true, the sooner you can make potable water from brackish well water, the better.

  • If you're an investor holding Petro Dollars, I absolutely cannot stress enough the critical decision you need to make about what type of renewale energy and infrastructure projects you should be funding. It really isn't as simple as just 'building a wind farm' or an ethanol plant. Where you spend your money and the type of company you invest in can mean the difference between a successful project or a loss. A wind farm alone won't do it. Community infrastructure developmets in the renewable energy sector need complex engineering and few companies have the experience and R&D teams as the folks at www.goldpactpower.com from working with NASA, Edison, Bechtel, Westinghouse, GE Wind, GreenLine Bio-fuel systems, Stanford Physicists on developing new proprietary fuels (GPP-PF), and creating fresh water to irrigate deserts - the works. While the company is young, their engineers are seasoned veterans with 20 - 30 years experience in a wide range of infrastructure project development, construction and operation. One of their V.P.'s ran the first profitable wind farm in California. Another ran her own Bio-fuel crop development company. Their CEO used to write systems to run nuclear facilities and then trained under a NASA Physicist for six years to design blades for wind turbines and then under GE Wind to develop wind farms. The company has vision and according to their web site, more than $40 billion in SIGNED wind farm projects all around the world. They've worked with Legislatures in foreign nations to write new energy laws to accelerate permits and renewable energy portfolio standards and that is exactly what the planet needs - a fast track system of developing integrated renewable energy, fresh water and crop systems. And a big part of their plans involve converting barren desert lands into lush agricultural projects; its more than R&D with GPP. Its a passion and their plans make sense, both for the communities they serve and the Investors who put up the capital to complete a series of projects. Check them out.

  • Don't want to invest in a renewable energy company? Do you prefer the safety of CDs in a bank? www.BTUBank.com is looking for new locations in the U.S. and overseas where they can charter new branches specifically for renewable energy and infrastructure projects. Once chartered in your region, they can help communities develop new systems, help analyze returns, leverage MTN instruments (Medium Term Notes) and work with Central Banks of Foreign Natons to get projects moving forward quickly. If you want to invest in renewable energy and want your capital sitting in a bank in your local city, this is a good place to start.

As this is a rather new web site for us (compared to the others I've had that are mostly videos and radio interviews with lessons on energy and trading), I will be adding more links here over the next few days and weeks. Please check back often.
