“The best kind of energy, the cheapest kind of energy, the energy that addresses energy independence, energy security, and also global warming is energy not used.” Richard A. Muller during a radio interview on NPR’s Science Friday.
I discovered Richard A. Muller while listening to a recent podcast on NPR’s Science Friday. (12/5/2008) There’s often nothing more satisfying than having someone a million times smarter than yourself validate your thoughts.
Such is the quote above from Muller regarding my thinking on energy conservation. Why is carpooling good? Because it conserves energy and it brings people together. If he had only mentioned CarolinaCommuter.com…..
Dr. Muller was on Science Friday talking about a new book that he’s written called, Physics for Future Presidents : the science behind the headlines. RICHARD A. MULLER is professor of physics at the University of California, Berkeley. He is a past winner of the MacArthur Fellowship. Physics for Future Presidents is based on his renowned course for non-science students.
