Green Skies - Fuel Efficient Planes -Virgin Atlantic Chairman Sir Richard Branson Pursues Green Agenda
Boeing and Virgin Atlantic Announce 787 Order, Environmental Partnership--
Order for 15 787-9s is Europe's largest order to date for fuel-efficient airplane -- Working together on biofuel demonstration and cutting aircraft fuel consumption at airports
CHICAGO, April 24 -- Boeing (NYSE: BA -) and Virgin Atlantic today announced an environmental partnership, which includes an order for 15 787-9 Dreamliners, marking the largest 787 order to date for Europe. The order, worth approximately $2.8 billion at list prices, was previously listed on Boeing's Orders and Deliveries Web site and attributed to an unidentified customer. The order also includes options for an additional eight 787-9s and purchase rights for an additional 20 787s.
"Virgin Atlantic is pleased to introduce the Boeing 787 Dreamliner as our aircraft of the future," said Steve Ridgway, chief executive officer, Virgin Atlantic. "This revolutionary aircraft will bring a step change to the industry, substantially reducing environmental impact and incorporating innovative design and advanced technology, while providing an enhanced flying experience for our passengers."
The environmental partnership includes a joint biofuel demonstration aimed at developing sustainable fuel sources suitable for commercial jet engines and the aviation industry. The demonstration, scheduled for 2008 using a Virgin Atlantic Boeing 747-400, is being worked jointly with GE Aviation and Virgin Fuels. Further details will be announced later this year.
In addition, Boeing and Virgin Atlantic are working together on reducing fuel burn and cutting aircraft emissions on the ground by exploring alternatives to traditional aircraft operations at airports. For example, Boeing and Virgin Atlantic are partnering on trials of towing airplanes to "starting grids," areas close to the active runway to start engines preflight, with a goal of reducing fuel consumption and carbon emissions by up to 50 percent, as well as limiting community noise. Trials conducted thus far at London's Heathrow and Gatwick Airports and San Francisco International Airport have produced positive results, and work continues to develop alternative operational procedures at the world's busiest airports.
"Virgin Atlantic has demonstrated extraordinary leadership within our industry on addressing environmental impact, and Boeing is proud that the 787 Dreamliner is such an important ingredient of the airline's plan for the future," said Scott Carson, president and chief executive officer, Boeing Commercial Airplanes. "Working together in partnership, Boeing and Virgin Atlantic will develop innovative, environmentally progressive solutions to provide greater fuel efficiency and lower aircraft emissions."
The Boeing 787 Dreamliner, scheduled for entry into service in 2008, provides passengers with a better flying experience, and operators with a more efficient commercial jetliner.
With the 787 Dreamliner, Boeing continues its leadership and innovation with a mostly composite airplane that uses 20 percent less fuel per passenger than similarly sized airplanes. The 787 is designed for the environment with lower carbon emissions and quieter takeoffs and landings. Inside the airplane, passengers will find cleaner air, bigger windows, more stowage space and improved lighting.
Since the 787 launch in April 2004, 44 customers worldwide have logged 544 orders worth more than $75 billion at current list prices, making the Dreamliner the most successful commercial airplane launch in history.

Oprah celebrates Earth Day and teaches consumers to make green choices
If anyone can change consumer habits - we know its Oprah. She has influenced the publishing industry in a significant way and today she is inciting her studio and at home audience to "Go Green".
As she tells us that each person creates 4.5 pounds of garbage each day- we can all start with changing our habits and begin recycling on a regular basis.
She also reminded us that as we go grocery shopping and we are asked if we want paper or plastic bags- respond with "neither" .She urges consumers to buy reusable material bags that can be washed ( with eco friendly detergent) .
Another tip- rather than buying bottled water over and over again - buy a re-usable water container for on the go. Some even come with a built in filter.
For light bulbs- spend the extra money up front for the energy efficient bulbs and save money and energy over the long run. Each consumer switching to buying and using just one energy efficient bulb would make a world of difference.
Eco friendly cleaning products can change the environment in and out of your house and even several cases , it has saved children with allergies . With allergies at epidemic rates- that should be an easy change .
For Starbucks addicts - and who isn't - bring in your fillable coffee containers and save money and help save a tree.
Bottom line - we can all make small differences in our daily lives without compromising or loosing to make a big difference.
Oprah just made a big impact on the growing trend of green and ethical consumerism

Hedge Funds Back $79 Million Order for ZAP (OTC BB: ZAAP) Electric Cars

The Electric Vehicle Company (EVC) was founded with the goal of promoting economical non-polluting electric transportation. EVC is being funded by two hedge funds, Diversified Equity Funding, L.P. and Diversified Strategies Fund, LLC, which both have an investment interest in ZAP. EVC will focus on sales of electric vehicles to municipalities, distributors, university campuses, auto and recreational dealers, foreign countries and the military. Additionally, the company has the goal of developing the first retail chain committed to the sale of all electric vehicles. The two funds have committed the funding necessary to develop the marketing organization. The hedge funds will also provide financing for the purchase of ZAP vehicles by fleets and municipalities
ZAP CEO Steve Schneider said the order is for ZAP's electric cars, trucks and other vehicles. Schneider noted that EVC would receive an 8% discount if orders were filled within the next 12 months. The order is subject to meeting the performance criteria of EVC and certain terms of ZAP.
"We believe this order, which constitutes thousands of vehicles, is the largest order for consumer electric vehicles in history," said Steve Schneider, CEO of publicly owned ZAP. "Many municipalities have been talking recently about mitigating greenhouse gas emissions, so we are grateful to be involved in this historic effort."
Schneider noted that in March, large pension funds and business enterprises called for Congress to place limits on emissions of carbon dioxide and other gases blamed for global warming, the latest among several business-oriented groups to call for a national climate policy.
ZAP, the only full-line electric vehicle company in the US, made news recently with the sale of its XEBRA electric cars and trucks, the first vehicles designed for the US market by a Chinese automobile manufacturer. ZAP also recently announced an automotive business plan to design a new generation of high performance electric vehicles designed by Lotus Engineering.

UBS Report: "Climate Change: Beyond Whether''
At the end of January, UBS Wealth Management Research issued the research report, "UBS Research Focus – Climate Change: Beyond Whether," which looks at research on climate change to offer a detailed, sector-by-sector breakdown identifying key investment opportunities and risks for the individual investor.
According to the January 31 release- “Whether or not you agree with the view that human activity is influencing the climate system is largely irrelevant to the investment thesis. What is important is that numerous policies to combat the threat of global warming are converging to influence people’s behavior, alter the risk profile of various businesses, and improve the investment outlook for others,” said Klaus Wellershoff, global head of UBS Wealth Management Research, and Kurt Reiman, head of thematic research for UBS Wealth Management Research.
According to the report’s findings, investors who seek to incorporate climate change risks and opportunities into their portfolios have options that span a wide range of asset classes, including:
Equity-related strategies include underweighting sectors, industries and companies that are highly carbon-intensive and have little potential to adapt to new technologies;
Investment in companies exposed to renewable and low-carbon energy production and energy efficiency;
Investment in theme funds focusing specifically on climate-change mitigation;
Investment in equity baskets, certificates and indices on specific investment areas such as white biotech, photovoltaics, and biofuels;
Investment in venture capital firms and private equity funds focused on environmental technology;
Socially responsible investment (SRI) funds and indices that follow one of three approaches: one that includes only the best companies, one that excludes laggards in the field, and one that focuses on the highest improvement potential;
Fixed income strategies that reduce exposure to companies that face heightened credit risk because of future policy measures and un-hedged exposure to severe weather events, such as hurricanes and floods;
Investment in renewable bonds issued by governments and project development companies to finance specific clean energy projects.

follow up on CO2 play posted January 30
CO2 TECH LTD (CTTD.PK) looks like it was more a short term stock play on the media attention of the global warming based on the anticipated international report that was due February 2nd.
I thought I was looking at the wrong stock today when I looked at the price - but no - it currently is trading on .39 on a lot less volume than previous
One of the dangers of trading a pink sheet stock is its difficult to get any info if they are non- reporting. There are exceptions and there are some reporting pink sheet stocks you can trade.
This was a relatively new player in the green space and I was personally getting 2-3 emails a day on it unsolicited, reflecting a stock play more than a long term deal.
Investors need to do their homework and remember even with complete due diligence their is still risk.
The seriousness of the global CO2 issue will bring in real company with a real solution with long term investment opportunity

“Insiders Place Bets on Global Warming Play”
By Michael Brush, Insiders Corner http://www.investorideas.com/insiderscorner/Exclusively for InvestorIdeas.com®
Ever since Al Gore’s movie “An Inconvenient Truth” hit the circuit last year – and spooky-warm weather seemed to confirm his thesis – many investors have been on the hunt for climate change stocks.
What’s more, reports of bizarre weather persist – most recently in Europe which was struck by unusually severe wind storms in January. Since bizarre weather patterns are a symptom of global warming, according to Gore, I’ll nominate Home Solutions of America (HSOA) as my Insiders Corner climate change stock.

“Insiders Place Bets on Global Warming Play”
By Michael Brush, Insiders Corner http://www.investorideas.com/insiderscorner/Exclusively for InvestorIdeas.com®
Ever since Al Gore’s movie “An Inconvenient Truth” hit the circuit last year – and spooky-warm weather seemed to confirm his thesis – many investors have been on the hunt for climate change stocks.
What’s more, reports of bizarre weather persist – most recently in Europe which was struck by unusually severe wind storms in January. Since bizarre weather patterns are a symptom of global warming, according to Gore, I’ll nominate Home Solutions of America (HSOA) as my Insiders Corner climate change stock.
