Offshore wind can produce 4 times the electricity America uses today. The U.S. is way behind Northern Europe which has 90% of the offshore wind Turbines existing on this planet. The total Offshore Wind Potential of America is over 4000 GW.  (Atlantic 1256 GW, Great lakes 734 GW, Pacific 930 GW, Hawaii 634 GW, Gulf 594 GW) :) Imagine: offshore wind alone can generate 4 times more electricity than America needs and that's true for other nations as well. Dozens of countries are near the Atlantic or Pacific or Indian oceans. For more details see...http://www.nrel.gov/docs/fy10osti/45889.pdf

See why I installed solar panels equivalent to planting 322 Trees ►https://plus.google.com/+AlexP/posts/FHtw2ri5Dq8 and why I drive an electric car equivalent to planting 382 trees. ►https://plus.google.com/+AlexP/posts/TQboBAji7uo.
If your panels produce more electricity than you use, you get free charging for your car too, like me. :)
