A List of Political Setbacks that the 2020 Administration must Address and Reform
The current political administration is so incompetent, it drove me to keep a document of their poor decisions, and continue to update it for the next three years with vital pieces of government that will need to be reformed following the 2020 presidential election. At the time that this article was first written, the Trump administration had recently completed their first 100 days. After our country fixes all of these mistakes, we can then move forward with higher taxes to pay for healthcare, education and infrastructure. Sentaor Bernie Sanders has stated: "We need to rethink the Electoral College." One of
United Kingdom Removes Coal from their Energy Grid for a Day
Traditional forms of energy production are eroding faster than the metal pipes used to extract fossil fuels from the earth. Recently, the United Kingdom completed an entire day without the use of coal to power the country. The country has decreased their production of coal from 20 percent in 2014, to almost little or no production in 2017. Renewable energy continues to replace coal for price efficiency. One counter argument to the progress in sustaining the environment with renewable energy is that countries like the United Kingdom, Iceland, Albania and Paraguay are smaller in comparison to the United States and China.

Scientists in Norway Developing Eco-Friendly Solar Cells with Enhanced Efficiency
Energy production is in a major state of transition. Technology companies such as Apple, Google, Tesla and Amazon are all investing in solar power. This is taking place at the same time as a preliminary budget has been sent to Congress that would defund the Environmental Protection Agency. The large tech companies are aware of the benefits to renewable energy. They have a large demand for power to cool their servers. Apple has reported to have had an excess amount of energy at times for utilizing renewable energy. The debate on cost for solar energy is over. Research how
Project Sunroof by Google Provides Insight on Solar Power Production in the United States
Google and Project Sunroof recently collected data on the areas in the United States that would be the most viable to produce solar power energy. They collected data covering over 60 million buildings. This project does an excellent job of locating and connecting with the cities that can have the biggest impact against carbon emissions caused by climate change. They released the top ten cities with the highest potential for solar power production. Those cities include: Houston Los Angeles Phoenix San Antonio New York San Diego Jacksonville Oklahoma City Dallas Albuquerque Google also reported data from their nationwide research.
