A Christmas Carol: The Ghost of our Planet's Future

We all remember the part in A Christmas Carol when Scrooge is taken by The Ghost of Christmas Future.  Scrooge is taken into the future and catches a glimpse of the grim life that will come to be if he does not change his attitude and behavior today.

I’ve just taken a trip with the Ghost of the Future and I am ready to shout from the rooftops that we must, without question, take action to avoid that fate.

Lovely afternoon for a picnic...

Is the solar on my house killing birds?? Nope.

In the last 24 hours it seems like solar went from being seen as an angelic green technology to a bird torture device.  People are wondering, are my solar panels killing birds?  What is the difference between my solar panels and Ivanpah?

I'm here to add a little insight to the conversation based on years of explaining solar to energy executives...  a sort of Intro to Solar for the very uninitiated.
