Off the coast of Scotland, Orbital Marine Power operates what it says is the"most powerful tidal turbine in the world." The turbine is approximately the size of a passenger airplane and even looks similar, with its central platform floating on the water and two wings extending downwards on either side.

"The best way to envision what Verdant Power's technology is, is to think of wind turbines underwater," the company's founder, Trey Taylor, told CNN Business. And river currents tend to provide the same advantages for energy generation as ocean currents, he explained ."What's nice about our rivers and systems is that could be 24/7 power," he said."Not to ding wind or solar, but the wind doesn't always blow and the sun doesn't always shine.

Save the sun and STOP harvesting solar power!

We're sure Biden can dump Billions...so they can fail in less than a year (just like Obama)

Earth is cooling down.

Climate change is natural process and humans can not make any climate change.

Shills for the Rs!? Too bad you guys are able to do so much damage. News media needs to have rules—a new Fairness Doctrine would make lying punishable.
