There is a great deal of information on the web about alternative energy. Here are a few sites that have helped to educate me on exactly what alternative energy is and why it can help purify our future.

This site focuses more on wind power and more specifically wind turbines. This site is good because it also clearly states that wind power can be unattractive because of the price and size of many wind turbines. There are many strides being taken to fix many of the turn offs of wind power because wind can be formed with the simplest of movements.

This site is a breath of fresh air in the world of alternative energy because it informs readers of what our government is doing to help decrease dependence on foreign energy. On the left hand side of the site is a list of topics and what our government plans to do to make those sources more efficient and effective in everyday society.

This site is arguably one of my favorite sites because unlike google, all search results are backed by respectable intellectuals. On this site I check on how our economy is doing (unfortunately, there's never any good news) and also I check to see if there have any overnight break through in alternative energy.
