Truthout: Google Shows Alternative Energy Firms the Way

Google Shows Alternative Energy Firms the Way http://www.truthout.org/040209EA David R. Baker, The San Francisco Chronicle: "Picking the right place for an immense solar power plant or wind farm is a tricky business, one that can turn natural allies into enemies. An open stretch of desert might look empty to a renewable-power developer who wants to blanket a few hundred acres with solar panels or mirrors. To environmentalists, the same spot could be vital habitat for an endangered lizard or bird - an ecosystem too delicate to touch. Now, a collaboration between Google and two leading environmental groups intends to head off those fights."
