Tower's Energy Could Power 20 Earths - Energy Tower May Reverse Global Warming
[Edit]
[Edit]
Global warming, energy problems, and water shortages could be solved by one gigantic invention: the Energy Tower.
Researchers claim that the tower, which stands 3,000 feet high and measures 1,200 feet across, could produce up to 20 times the energy the entire world uses today. It relies on solar power for hot air and work function optimally in hot, arid environments.
It can use any form of water flowing through the tower to turn turbines in order to create energy and remove salt if sea water is used.
‘
“The Energy Tower might help the Earth cool itself, and actually reverse global warming,” Inventor Spot explained. “‘Hadley Cell Circulation’ is a natural process whereby the earth cools itself, but it mostly occurs only near the equator. But by cooling air around it, often in desert regions, the Energy Tower could expand the effects of this global cooling process.”
The project is only awaiting funding for a prototype to be built.

 Tower siting: No Africa, No India, Gobi Desert China, SW US, No Mexico, Sudan, Saudi Arabia, Dubai UAE, Qatar, Baja CA Mex, Cuba, Haiti, Chile, Turkey, Syria,
Egypt, Sinai Penn, Cyprus, Greece,
Wow.
House a city under & around the Tower alone.
Have radar beacons to guide Planes Away from Tower & great for:
Cel phone arrays & Microwave & Radio array.
Nice.
Be a huge landmark if rural locale or eyesore IF NOT planned & placed correctly.
Hey Al Gore Fund this project.By: rocketranger on Dec 9, 07 | 0 Trends | 2067 Comments |
 Hi Rocketranger. If you follow the link you will see that Mexico, Middle East, Africa and others are on the list of sites where this would do well. Imagine if this were be 1/2 what they forecast and located in very poor countries, it would be revolutionary. Forget Gore, bring on Gates Foundation, Page and Brin, other multibillionaires?By: Going Like Sixty on Dec 9, 07 | 1552 Trends | 234 Comments |

impressive. hopeful and skeptical that this would work at the same time. By: jenyacenda on Dec 17, 07 | 0 Trends | 11 Comments |
 I'm skeptical. It would be interesting to see some theories about what it sounds like, what effect this has on the weather and how much energy it takes to pump the water 3000 feet up.
Sorry, but I wouldn't bet my money on it.
ps. Page and Brin are busy with their RE < C projectBy: Hjortur on Dec 17, 07 | 97 Trends | 86 Comments |
