on Oregon: The Next 150 Years
Oregon will continue to be one of the leaders in energy production.
The success of the Bonniville Power Commision will become a model other energy systems model. Good and proven payback model and well managed.
The coast will be a huge resource from wave energy.
Passive Solar panels will continue to become modernized and perfected in Oregon.
Alternate fuels from alge will grow well in our climate and will become an export.
Oregon Students will participate in a global education system that will allow students to sign up and learn from the best instructors in the world. Picture fun science classes taught personally by instructors as engaging as Bill Nye the Science Guy. Or African history from a historian in South Africa. Global economics from a credited instructor in the EU.
Oregon will modernize the public transportation system where people and cargo can board their vehicles directly onto a speeding train that never slows down. They will get them from Salem to Seattle non-stop in 1 hour where they will get off with their personal transport device (car) through an automated and safe depot at the entry and exit points. The cargo vehicles will have drivers take them the last mile.
I am not a pot smoker but canibus will be legalized.
Paper, now a novelty world wide, will continue to be one of Oregons exports but now will carry energy credits traded to us from governemts and people around the world. Canabus will be bread for this. Fast growing and with a good convertion rate to paper.
