In order to solve our most pressing global energy and economic problems it will depend primarily on how effectively we use our mass communication media to help empower all people worldwide to work together to achieve affordable sustainable global energy resources and thus promote the common sustainable wealth of all nations. Regardless of recent claims, Energy Independence & a sufficient lowering of energy costs will not happen without an all-out global broadcasting educational effort explaining how that goal can be effectively achieved.

Global & local media have an important first priority mission to educate the public on the critical importance of having a first order investment in energy efficiency & renewable energy, along with effective energy conservation practices. The existing scenario is that everyone invests in stock markets & ignores their critical energy investments, energy costs skyrocket collapsing the global economy & their stock market investments vanish. Had they first invested in the new energy economy, their cost of energy would have gone down & their lesser priority stock market & other investments would have been protected.

Thus far, there has been NO trace of a coordinated media effort to achieve that level of education and commitment, without which our global economy could fail humanity and countless human beings could suffer horrific losses.

This is the Vision I have for broadcasting's role in helping to create this new wealth producing global energy economy. This renewable & energy efficiency science & technology needs to be pro-actively disseminated by broadcasting throughout the world & taught in all schools at tuition free levels worldwide. Occupy The Media get aboard... (Refresh/Reload this page each visit.)

Our global economy 'will begin to collapse' when oil prices go up to 145 to 175 dollars a barrel, we must act now or that scenario, could too soon, become a reality...this will also reduce global warming and it's huge costs.

Those new energy sector opportunities will be made possible only when our mass communications system begins to focus on delivering content that the public can put to practical use solving our energy, climate & economic problems by all of us working together on an on-going basis.

We must have Prioritized Media Information Content that we can all put to practical use in our lives, the higher the critically important utility value of the content the better. You can corner a much larger portion of the audience by providing useful value, not merely worthless, useless, political horse-race waste of time rubbish...

If we want people nationally & globally to work together to reduce fossil fuel energy use then we have to explain HOW we can all be the central part of the economy & energy cost solutions &, how & why, we will all profit greatly by immediately being actively involved in this emergency mission to save & sustain our national & global economies.

INVESTIGATIVE Reporting Workshop - American University School of Communication

What if we take the political viewpoint of the Republican's in Washington, DC? They want to do away with the EPA they only want to drill baby drill &, would not promote any actions to reduce the wasteful use of fossil fuel energy. My wealthy friends & large corporations; think twice & hard before you short-sightedly contribute a lot of money to promote those that would follow a policy that would guarantee UN-affordable oil prices in the future, which would devastate the lives of a major portion of 7 billion human beings.

Our 7 billion human beings face an imminent and certain economic poverty crisis unless our global mass communication media begins now to focus on how we must act together immediately to avoid oil going, in the near future, from $145 to $175 dollars or more a barrel "which could over a short time totally sink our global economies." Additionally, Military actions in Iran could trigger crazy speculation - causing $145 to $175 barrel Oil; Democrats want to regulate wild speculation An article by Dr. Kent Moors, Global Energy Strategist, Money Morning.

The action initiating catalyst is the reality that if we don't act now fossil fuel oil costs will go above $150 a bbl., which will shut-down the global economy; These actions also help solve the extremely costly global warming problem..
The Wisconsin Channel WPT2 replayed today (03/28/12) THE 4th Street Forum The Green Energy Summit Video. Starts a bit slow, but gets real importantly informative as it goes along. IMO, this was one of the most important critically needed discussions on Television or Radio presented anywhere in WI.
There are scores of energy efficiency & conservation doables that were not mentioned on the forum; these Energy Efficiency and Conservancy Programs must have at least weekly ongoing Radio & TV telephone talk forums. We need to teach Home Energy Efficiency, Conservation & Renewable Energy in all our High Schools so grads can go out and earn a living doing what needs urgently to be done. They need to learn in High School how to do Home Energy Efficiency Audits & heat-gain/heat-loss calculations.
Ed Begley Jr. Talks Home Energy Audits We need hundreds of trained Home Energy Efficiency Auditors

This needs to be the beginning of energy efficiency, energy conservation, renewable energy and broadcasting's new high utility value problem solving content, leading to a global energy efficiency created economic renaissance. These are global economic sustainability ideas that have the potential to solve a multiplicity of our major national and global problems however; they must be implemented immediately to stave off near future economic disasters. Broadcasting and other global media can be our most powerful resource to educate enlighten and instruct the global public in the rebuilding of our human resource capital and our global energy sourced economies.

Working collaboratively together we in the private sector with the help of President Obama and all forms of Media can bypass congress, stimulate and jump-start the Energy Efficiency Performance and Renewable Economy which could produce nationally and globally tens of millions of good paying jobs. These are universal ideas and visionary concepts that shift our lack of use or, misuse of resources to powerful across the board winning economic empowerment equations. We can and will provide the specific details on how these ideas will work to produce the economic stimulus and jobs our global economy so disparately needs. We in the private sector have to bypass congress because they are not going to do what needs to be immediately done within the private sector economy.

GLOBAL ECONOMIC POLICIES | The Real Political Issues | * BROADCASTING & MASS MEDIA ISSUES

Jeremy Rifkin on Occupy: the upcoming third industrial revolution needs a new economic vision - Occupy!
If you want a decent Energy & Economic FUTURE for YOUR CHILDREN, I'd VOTE DEMOCRATIC.

I believe it is because I asked broadcasting to perform its public interest, convenience & necessity responsibilities & duties to its own economic interests' & to our national & global economic interests' that, I am being continuously screened off from reporting these future UN-affordable energy cost realities, if we don't act cooperatively together, we could face a collapsed austere global economy in the not too distant future.

This is only the beginning of the Vision I, & I believe Occupy media, have for broadcasting's role in helping to create this most needed new global energy economy.

Putting into action this new renewable & energy efficiency science is virtually our only hope for a decent global economic future.

Only one element of Wisdom, of countless many, involves the discerning of the differing levels of value, for example, the content values of our national and global mass communications, especially that of broadcasting. The level of your wisdom is demonstrated by the level of your ability to discern value levels of the content that we communicate and, then take action toward fully optimizing those latent content values that ought to reside within this horribly misused resource example.

Energy Efficiency Building Performance Audits represent the key-cornerstone on which all energy efficiency reductions in that field are dependent, without which there will be very little progress. Therefore, these energy sector job skill-sets have to be a critical part of high school curriculum so students can step from H.S. into their own business world of economic opportunity. Within property tax funded school districts, we need 'existing' HVAC adult workforce "Best Practices" skill training classes that also incorporate Energy Efficiency Building Performance Audits, room by room heat-gain heat-loss calculations, along with needed ductwork air flow skill training. The survey evidence proves the overwhelming need for existing workforce training. College Vo-tech programs cannot begin to meet the education and training demand in these critical energy economy fields!

The utility value qualities of our mass communication media content determines the direction of our economies and the quality of our 7 billion human lives. Our global media resources have the potential to inspire, teach, instruct, and motivate us to achieve high purposed economic based goals that lift our lives to higher levels of existence. Media is the most powerful force toward designing and redesigning the kind of future we will have and the quality levels of our lives.

Over the air broadcasting frequencies are a public owned communications utility. The key question is: should this public owned communications utility have a dedicated public purposed common thread woven into its programming content? The answer to that question will determine our future destiny.
Our mass communication media has to present the clean air & energy efficiency economic ideas for discussion, and then, they can be implemented toward rebooting the economy and reducing the horrendous costly catastrophes of future climate change.

I get 6 over the air public TV channels 3 from WI WPT & 3 from IA IPTV, the vast majority of the adult programming is rather useless content with scant little energy economic 'useful' educational & instructional content in these disparately needed areas to which I speak; what a horrific shame. We the people directly support public radio & television along with our tax support; yet what do we get for our money, virtually nothing we can put to valuable use to improve the economy and create jobs. What they could do is unlimited and far beyond what you'd imagine they could do for our economy and job creation. What a horrible waste of our most valuable resource...

We need Consumer Energy Efficiency Education (CEEE) Public Television content toward rebooting our energy efficiency economy and jobs; not endless useless program content.

This work focuses on how all of us, with the effective use of global media, can effectively participate in a more rapid revitalization of our homeland and global economies. This will be the most enjoyable and satisfying media and economic revitalization movement you could ever be involved in. We need to move forward in time, not backward, rehashing history will not move us forward; we need your help and participation.

This work is also in the self economic interest of commercial broadcasting and print mass media. Advertising gets results only when consumers have money to spend... the same goes for public radio & television sponsorship & membership drives... the private sector financed economic stimulus that I advocate means job security & sustainable income wealth for all of you in this media industry. This multifaceted idea strategy will also help stabilize the global stock markets and their economies.

It always comes down to how we utilize resources with the most potential to locate and disseminate the ideas that have legitimate potential to simultaneously solve our economic, jobs, energy, and costly global warming problems. These multifaceted economic solution based ideas reduce a major factor, our huge trade deficit by reducing oil imports.

Above all else, any Private Sector economic jobs solution based idea, to be of mega-level-value, must inspire global action. In order to effect constructive beneficial change our world leaders in government and mass media must be inspirational communicators in ways that motivate positive national and global actions.

Though President Obama is working on it, America has had NO working "Private Sector National jobs creating strategy," all we have in DC are negative political party media oriented wars in their fight to gain power. I have been unveiling a Private Sector national & global economic activity jobs creating strategy that mass media & everyone can participate in.

There are many ways media can inspire and motivate those with Private-Sector money to invest in safe, high return, energy efficiency investments that stimulate real demand, while achieving energy self-sufficiency, "greatly reducing our deficit creating trade deficit," reducing the radical weather change costs and greatly reducing the countless pollution caused costly damages, including health costs.

This multifaceted idea equation when widely disseminated will yield tremendous benefit "Returns On Investments" in every economic arena beneficial to human health, reducing climate change, improving standards of living and quality of life. Computer generated math equations and chart modeling will illustrate those ROI benefits.

Why does our powerful mass media and our powerful private-sector with 2.5-Trillion dollars to spend/invest “falsely believe” they’re both powerless to reboot the economy and jobs?

Is it because the entire media focus is solely on a deadlocked congress & our president as the only source to take action to restore economic activity normalcy and job creation? All we get from most media is POLITICAL analysis paralysis & NO Multifaceted Solution Oriented Ideas or, the needed democratically-open tel-talk brain-storming broadcast programs. Rush Limbaugh's broadcast rants are the antithesis of what is required; as are also the vast majority of public television's offerings, they do not meet the criterion of possessing highly usable utility oriented content.

To all Democrats; mitigating this climate warming & rising oil price costs situation &, what it means to the economic & quality of life & living to your children & grandchildren is your winning issue, hammer it home in every election!

Tavis Smiley & Cornel West; "The Rich & the Rest of Us," ON POINT RADIO -Was a first caller,but got chopped off the line,so here is only one of many workable points! I guess majoring in broadcasting & writing around 6-foot of stacked journals over a lifetime was a waste of my time, huh.

#1; We need to teach those Home Energy Efficiency Auditing heat-gain/heat-loss calculations & RENEWABLE Energy knowledge skills in High School, especially where there are minority school district board members, this will put High School grads to work doing what has to be accomplished immediately, - to save our present & future economy. These are science & physics based courses & are not difficult courses, they don't even require algebra, just simple math equations.

We pay high property taxes to have them "taught something besides ancient history," they need to also master infrared thermography and blower door & duct blaster applications, so they can start their own business or step from high school into these gravely needed energy based job skill arenas. The question, "What can we do about poverty other than govt handouts was never answered," - could have asked me.(?)

There has to be Departments of Public Instruction (DPI) in every form of media toward educating and instructing students and the public including the global masses to achieve an inspired unified economic growth revival agenda.

What is the Potential VALUE of Finding and Disseminating Globally, IDEAS that Solve Major Global Energy& Economic Problems?

Only by locating and implementing the right ideas will we reboot the global economy & simultaneously do a host of other critically important things.

The question is, how do we find these ideas and disseminate them globally through the existing conventional Mass Communications system.

We must establish news media that search the Internet and every possible source for these exceptional ideas with fantastic global potential to solve major global problems.

Well, how does the news of the winner of the pro-football Super Bowl get disseminated globally? A couple major global news dissemination sources are the AP, and UPI, if they can cover sports they can cover ideas that have the potential to revive the global economy and simultaneously solve other related major costly global problems; some of which are listed elsewhere on this page.

There are unlimited ways to get the idea alerts on every broadcast station and network using Public Service Announcements (PSA’s). There are many media entities that can act as hubs, NPR, PBS, MSNBC, Free Speech TV, link TV, CNN, university channels and networks, the broadcast networks, and so forth.

30 Organizations Dedicated to Keeping Journalism Great

The most important National Security and Defense policy path direction toward the achievement of worldwide peace and prosperity involves the worldwide development and full utilization of energy conservation efficiency initiatives, along with renewable energy. These industries represent a sleeping economic development giant and are the forefront of the New Economy! Renewable energy resources represent a sleeping giant with unlimited potential to transform economies and our living communities on a worldwide basis back to sustainable quality of life environments.
There is no other technology arena that has the potential to do more to produce optimal levels of sustainable prosperity and to improve the quality of life for every world citizen than does the fullest development of nonpolluting renewable energy industry resources. We will be enabled on a worldwide basis by utilizing renewable energy technologies to increase the production of energy without producing toxic pollution. This will be coupled with utilizing all possible forms of recycling, with the use of renewable energy resources, that can reduce the unnecessary using up of our scarce—precious resources.

This is, along with Global Economic Policy Reforms, the most important public policy initiative of the new millennium because it has the potential to make every country, every industry, every family and every individual capable of producing all of their own energy needs. This is why we need investment capital and targeted policy initiative incentive based tax cuts to launch this new revolutionary industry, rather than across the board tax cuts that primarily benefit the wealthy class interest.

Yes, each individual, family, farm, and each industry can be totally self sufficient by generating their own nonpolluting energy resources. The potential for economic expansion nationally and globally is mind boggling and solves the most fundamental quality of life issues facing the global community in this new millennium.

The conservation of energy is also a potential savior of our economy & jobs, along with its pollution abatement benefit.

Broadcasting and all Mass Media have the People Empowerment Resource Capabilities to do, - what an American President & Congress can never do alone!

Without their help & the coordinated action of local government working with the private sector, - economic & Jobs creation recovery won't happen.

Broadcasting has the hidden resource potential to Reboot the Economy, Jobs & needed tax revenues.
-------------------------------------------------

In America & globally, due to future high energy costs, we could be in the most precarious economic situation in our history.
America's 2011 Precarious Energy Economic Situation

I will not go into all the obvious details of how our public & private sector has us in this gigantic debt ridden economic situation.

America’s giant deficits & national debt has put the dollar as the global Reserve Currency in jeopardy. If the dollar loses this Reserve Currency Status its value will drop & everything we buy will require a lot more dollars. The dollar is no longer backed by gold; it is backed by a government currency printing press.

I will not go into how bad that could get, but rather will explain how every sector & segment of our country must work together to reboot our economy & jobs which will increase the needed tax revenues.

WW2 was the classic example of the united cooperation that has to take place.
America was not yet out of the horrible economic depression of the 1930s when every sector of our country had to mobilize to fight effectively a world war.

Every sector of the media cooperated, government war bonds were sold to the public, and nearly everything was rationed. Women were trained to work in factories manufacturing tanks, ships, and airplanes.

There was NO uncooperative division; everyone did their part so our military would have a chance to be victorious against the ruthless aggressors.

We are in a similar serious situation now, which will require the same cooperative effort to reboot the economy, jobs, & to generate the needed tax revenues.

All broadcasters need to work cooperatively together with all of us to reboot the economy, or other countries will lose confidence in America’s economy and might begin a downfall of our economy that we could be helpless to stop.

Our Economic Future & Homeland Security is at Stake; everyone needs to do their part to save America's economic future.

I can provide the detailed pathway, after you hear all the mutual win/win details, you are totally free to choose to act, unite and create wealth or, do nothing and risk losing trillions of dollars of wealth...

Mike Arnold, WPR Associate Director and Director of Content- Monday 05/07/2012

You have the opportunity to have WPR "The Ideas Network" become a high utility broadcasting content source with the potential to be a catalyst toward beginning to safeguard our global economy from UN-affordable energy costs.

"The most critically important issue that matters to all of us," is the moderating of the impending UN-affordable global fossil fuel energy cost crisis that will collapse the global economy if we in broadcasting do not act immediately to educate the public toward becoming far more energy efficient, energy conservative & energy renewable oriented.

There are a tremendous number of things we can do, solely within the private sector, to reduce our energy usage & costs that will help reduce the direction of rising Oil Prices that could go above $150 a bbl., which would begin to tank the global economy & destroy the economic future for our youth.

We need at least a weekly call in program with energy experts dedicated to helping listener's reduce their energy usage which will help sustain the economy & reduce the threat of global warming

Mike Crane, Director of Wisconsin Public Radio - Monday 01/09/2012

This is an ideas created world we live in and the good idea concepts need to be broadcast globally so that the people of all nations can participate to make those ideas work for all of us.

We must have effective global media distribution of those wealth producing idea/concepts that contain the unconventional multifaceted highly purposed visionary solutions to a multiplicity of “interrelated” economic problems, have a legitimate opportunity to produce their promised results of fostering a new economic revival revolution.

There is simply a desperate need for a properly sequenced energy efficiency & energy conservation movement that the global public can be inspired to participate in and, that will change the entire direction of all economies toward achieving unified cooperative commonwealth producing results.

We have in the private sector new innovative ways to finance those energy efficiency/conservation projects that eliminates the upfront investment costs. Also, there is well over 2 trillion dollars in America’s private sector, a lot of which can get actively involved in this global movement toward improving every nation’s commonwealth & reducing their budget deficits at all levels.…

I have a long lifetime of serving & working in those areas of expertise that are essential to the realization of these goals.

By greatly reducing global fossil fuel usage we can simultaneously reduce most country’s foreign trade deficits, cleanup our global environment while reducing the future massive costs of global warming, and simultaneously reducing those unnecessary related health costs.

The private sector economic stimulation will greatly increase tax revenues so that some critical public infrastructure work can be performed, further helping the national & global economies & jobs to fully recover.

All of this is in the economic extreme self-interest of the entire global media industry; that includes public radio & television.
