Raser Exhibits Geothermal Devlopment at California Governor's Conference-Tony Blair Discusses Climate Change


Raser Technologies was invited to Exhibit and show its Geothermal renewable enegy developments at the California Governor and First Lady's Conference in Long Beach California.

Raser displayed its low temperature technology and modular strategy to rapidly deploy and develop geothermal power plants that make power from the abundance of low and medium temperature resources throughout the west. Geothermal is one of the most environmentally friendly ways to generate power with virtually zero emissions.

Former Prime-Minister, Tony Blair was one of the keynote speakers at the conference. He said something notable regarding taking action on global warming even if we aren't completely sure yet if it is real.

Tony Blair said There has been some controversy about global warming and that he has personally spoken to some of the top scientists and he is convinced that it is real. He added, "regardless of whether you believe it is real or not, there is very little down-side to taking action. Blair added "even if we are wrong about global warming, if the world does takes action, then we will have at least reduced pollution and found better ways to live. "

"On the other hand," Blair added, "if we don't act, then we are betraying our children and future generations... and we don't have the right to do that."
