That link to an article, and pictures, that show how a solar powered street light might look. [You might have read my previous post about them].

It makes a lot of sense, and is a perfect way to start getting our foot in the door for renewable energy. Any city, or municipality, can just go ahead and do it, there will be no resistance from federal governments or oil lobbys since the city is responsible for street lighting.

We have all seen the pictures of planet earth at night from the space station, and it is obvious how lit up we are at night. Solar powered streetlights can replace dirty sources of electricity bit by bit, no need for huge grand plans - just do it as the money become available.

Keep in mind, City Managers, that each one of these solar lights will be a one-time cost instead of the nightly expense of buying power from the grid forevermore to power the streetlights you have now!!
