From Oil to Solar: Saudi Arabia Plots a Shift to Renewables
“Life in Saudi Arabia has long been defined by the oil that flows from the kingdom. Over decades, the vast wealth it pumped out paid not just for gleaming towers and shopping malls but also for a government sector that employs a majority of working Saudis.
Now, Saudi Arabia is trying to tie its future to another natural resource it has in abundance: sunlight.
The world’s largest oil exporter is embarking, under Prince Mohammed bin Salman, on an ambitious effort to diversify its economy and reinvigorate growth, in part by plowing money into renewable energy. The Saudi government wants not just to reshape its energy mix at home but also to emerge as a global force in clean power…”

great
Good!
Well Well they are doing this????
Watch Oil “Tank” coming up soon in a market near you
YOU HAVE BEEN SERVED NOTICE AGAIN Huh?
Wasim Muklashy the global leaders of oil production are going green for home lands. The world is outlawing the dirty diesel America makes. Soon renewable energy will be less to use than oil. Oil prices will drop or tank from the market glut of oil. Oil is poison to burn. Plant oil is not.. America could be the world leader in renewables but the red tape to serve the big oil makes it hard. peace
YOU HAVE BEEN SERVED NOTICE AGAIN Aha! Gotcha. Yes, thanks for the explanation. I agree. As a matter of fact, renewables are already cheaper to produce and use than fossil fuels. We’ll catch up. Might take a minute, but we’ll get there.
Wasim Muklashy yes we will.
We will have to get in leaders in the US that are today and for the people, The opposite of California which is doing the downward spiral under Jerry Brown the governor for life. The private sector with the help of the internet is the new front of energy technology. It will be good to see big oil making alcohol fuel to burn in existing engines. Will America be first? I hope so as the Country is very polluted in areas like Pasadena CA with Jet fuel refiners in a City using the water table to clean the oil. Peace
YOU HAVE BEEN SERVED NOTICE AGAIN Meanwhile, California is the one leading the charge in renewables, from the research to the development to the implementation – I don’t know what downward spiral you’re talking about. And as a resident of Los Angeles for 40 years, even though the traffic is the worst in the country, the pollution has become EXPONENTIALLY better, especially in the last 10, than it’s ever been. And as an avid hiker, I can attest to this because I can actually see downtown from most vistas most days, including from Eagle Rock and Pasadena, versus the 80s when you wouldn’t even dare go outside. Furthermore, I see electric car chargers EVERYWHERE I go, and solar panels and wind turbines dot the landscape like trees. Oh, and I think the refineries you’re thinking are the ones in Pasadena, TEXAS, not Pasadena California: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pasadena_Refining_System, http://www.chron.com/business/energy/article/Troubled-Pasadena-Refining-fined-for-emissions-11728632.php, http://fuelfix.com/blog/2017/05/10/petrobras-considers-selling-pasadena-refinery/. There are no refineries in Pasadena, California.
Wasim Muklashy Hi for those being poisoned in beautiful Pasadena CA – and now the entire San Gabriel Valley down to the L.A. Basin an entire different story comes forth of agonizing pain and loss of life. Whole neighborhoods are having contaminated groundwater simply pumped out of the ground and into homes, buildings, etc. Pasadena CA usurped the EPA and CEQA funds for whole house water filtration. L.A. County CA MADE PASADENA CA install R/O filtration for the street runoff that goes to the ocean as it passes through L.A. Water reservoirs like Silverlake / Hyperion etc. It was for the Refiner JPL Pasadena that the Black Balls were placed on the Reservoir water. Not for slowing evap of water as balls are used for melting ice and evaporation ponds back east. The ball’s shield the active UVs from the volumes of Trichloroethene (TCE) and Perchlorate which the media refers to as cleaning solution. JPL uses the whole valley water supply as cleaning solution. You were here when Oak Grove Park Pasadena (Altadena is owned by Pasadena) was open. Now after the EPA declared the entire park which is a Factory of immense proportions using the stream as a washing machine which chemicals are recaptured and concentrated as A SUPERFUND HAZMAT ZONE – Now the Park is called Hahamongna and is a State Park with no warnings anywhere which is illegal. EPA is powerless to enforce. see the concrete ponds and control / leach ponds all the way up and down, this is the JPL refinery in the middle of neighborhoods and and a city. This was made in the early 40’s by devil worshiping Jack Parsons and the real name for JPL id is Jack Parsons Lab, it was changed after he died, but not before he tried to eat his wife without cooking first. Pasadena was declared a secret bomb / fuel factory and has this ever since. No outside health dept. Or agency like EPA can force Pasadena to do anything. Oak Grove park was closed and a new park that isn’t mentioned in the most TOXIC designation of a Hazmat Site in the United States “SUPERFUND” was created to hide the danger to the city and counties around this.
Just look at the progression of foul wells spreading across this part of California from a single source ( many others too but we are discussing the countries largest refiner of Jet and Rocket Fuel – JPL – Caltech owns this. View the greatest # of Cancer/Defect/Brain Tumor Dr.’s and staff per capita in the nation in Pasadena.CA. We all love the cool stuff this place produces but not the POISON. The EPA now says DO NOT CONTACT THE SOIL in San Gabriel Valley California. Do Not Contact the Water in San Gabriel Valley CA and do NOT breathe the water vapors as they are 25
300 times over the HAZARDOUS LEVEL of 1 part per billion of both perchlorate and TCE. Pasadena CA looms over Los Angeles as a Hungry Ghost silently killing and consuming. California is the Leader of Green Energy? Then why the moratoriums and ever increasing fees and punishments for going alternative. California was told that California has to pay AZ, NV to TAKE the excess energy as Solar makes a glut…. This is a lie, like the water drought story. The land is not dry like it used to be. This can be fixed by acknowledging it first.We have more homeless now since the great depression.More Companies and people are moving out because of Jerry Brown anti green / anti business / anti citizen laws to fund a sanctuary state of entitled people who do not have to follow the laws like a citizen as diplomatic immunity kicks in. One can be in organized crime and only get slap on wrist from diplomatic immunity. Many in California are Canadians having renounced US citizenship in Canada and not filing the forms with US State Dept. allowing them to feel safe while collecting dozens of welfare and veteran benefit checks etc.Beautiful and prosperous California went to the most affluent per Capita in the Nation to the Poorest State per Capita IN THE NATION. California has ⅓ +of all people on welfare in the Nation. The rich pensions are unsustainable. Property tax is going up around the H. Jarvis act.California has legalized “safe shooting up Heroin and Fentanyl etc. safe zones where police etc can not inter-vein. No good will come of this as the streets are running with syarenges every time it rains and washes the needles from the hillsides and bushes into the gutters.
Ya California is two States – the governing state of bullet train to nowhere mentality for the real funding of Sanctuary City over Citizen scam. And the real people doing the innovation and living one way or another losing 1 right after another. Do you own property in California?
Fix California, Repeal Jerry Brown Laws.
Have a good one.

Wasim Muklashy sorry……. I hike etc. too, I have many reasons to want to save San Gabriel Valley / L. A. Basin and I love each of them very much.
The Trees are dying everywhere NOT from bugs or climate change but from the VOC’s in the water from Fracking in California. TCE is a micro solvent so small and powerful 1 gallon will foul 1,000,000,000 gallons of water or liquids. The TCE forces the water to the surface where the plants get at it as it washes away the natural resin an sap. Trees split open as if trying to breath. Drought is declared because shallow wells are dry – Solvents do this to water. Jerry Brown has allowed trillion of gallons of super fouled water from fracking into the delta and underground water supplies;throughout California.
The air is better but the water is worse. Counteract with minerals like salt in the water. This number is way low. See in the Cities like L.A. / Pasadena. The bugs like the fungus comes after the entity is weakened by the water.
