Alternative Energy - C2CAM - 03.23.11 - Global Conspiracy / Alternative Energy (Coast To Coast AM)

C2CAM - 03.23.11 - Global Conspiracy / Alternative Energy (Coast To Coast AM) Date: 03-23-11 Host: George Noory Guests: David Icke, Sterling D. Allan In the first half, controversial author David Icke discussed what's behind the curtain of world events, how a global cartel pulls the strings, and changes that humanity is facing. The planet is undergoing a vibrational or energetic shift and during this time hidden aspects of life will be revealed to people, along with big geophysical upheavals, and increased solar activity, he said. One such revelation that people are becoming aware of is that a secret cabal runs the world, and pushes events in a direction that gives them more and more power, he stated. In addition to another deliberate crashing of the economy, conflicts in the Middle East, including the recent attacks on Libya, are part of a plan by the cabal to instigate WWIII, drawing in not only the US, but China and Russia, Icke continued. The idea of the Third World War is to create so much violence and economic mayhem, that "they can say the only way to stop it is to have one global army under one command," which will impose the will of a world government on any country, region, or people, he warned. --------------------- In the second half, researcher Sterling D.

solar power companies - Solar Stirling Engine Basics Explained

www.SolarStirlingPlant.net is a revolutionary invention that uses the sun to create free electricity. And no, we are not talking about the solar panel. This is a different solar energy generator called the Stirling Plant, it is a system that harnesses up to 12x more energy than the expensive solar photovoltaic energy systems. The best part about it, it is much cheaper to build than regular solar panels, and it is easy to build, meaning you do not have to have any technical skills prior to building it. The Solar Stirling Plant harnesses the power of the sun, thus it produces free and clean renewable energy and it works fully off the grid. This is a new method of generating free energy. The concept of the Solar Stirling Plant has been researched for quite a while, and now after the we perfected the design and simplified it to a point that everybody can design it, we decided to make it available to the public. The Solar Stirling Plant operates by using a parabolic reflector dishes to gather all the sun rays which are focused and concentrated into one single spot - wich is in focus of the parabolic dish, where the stirling engine will be placed. When the sun rays are focused into one spot on which the solar stirling plant is located, the temperature difference makes the engine rotate at a fast pace and create massive amounts of energy, unseen by other renewable energy devices such as solar panels or wind turbines. As a source of heat the Solar Stirling Plant uses parabolic <b>...</b>
