..the solution needs to happen fast, and it’s big. Currently, the US solar industry has total revenues of about $3 billion per year. That is only 1/6 of the revenue attributed to US Mother’s Day, and 1/50 of the revenues attributed to a typical US Christmas season. You’ve all heard of Moore’s Law.. We need to grow the solar industry and other renewable industries at a rate equal to Moore’s Law. We need to not rest on our laurels, we need to cast off our laurels so they do not slow us down. We need to think in new ways, we need to break old rules where they are not helpful. Most of all, we need to understand that we’ve just started, and that we need to keep moving, not reflect, contemplate, and consider small demonstrations.

Put another way, we need to think as big as big oil.
