Homework blog #1
The state of New Mexico is heading in a "Green" direction. PNM is continuing with their "Blue Skies" program which offers electricity through wind power. The state is also sanctioning more wind turbines to be built and a clean coal facility is in the works. In Bernalillo County, new home builders are offering "Green" housing, which will focus on home being more "energy efficient." What are your thoughts about New Mexico trying to pave the way for other states, being the "Green" state?

hey Mr. Noriega Its Gilbert Pedroza i think its cool that new mexico is trying to make other states green since it will help the enviroment stay green and help the planet from global warming.
ReplyDeletehey Mr. Noriega it mareon gray, new mexico should of started going green a long time ago,especially when we live in a desrt. we wouldn't be as bad as in a reccesion we are in now. it's a good idea dont get me wrong on that but this should of started a long time ago!
ReplyDeleteI think it's a great thing that New Mexico is "going green." Typically, New Mexico is number one for bad things like DWI deaths, but finally we can be number one for a good thing like being environmentally healthy. I think that New Mexico is a beautiful state, we have the mountains, so much open land, and a gorgeous blue sky, and I'm so glad that efforts are being made to keep those things beautiful! I think it's great that PNM and Bernalillo County are offering easy ways to reduce pollution and make our carbon footprint smaller. I hope that other companies and even other states follow in New Mexico's footsteps and make an effort to preserve our earth in an eco friendly way.
ReplyDeleteit's cool that New Mexico is trying to be green by bilding wind turbins and housing to help the earth. Mr.Noriega this is Austin Miller and i'm with a none proffit ortaniztaion wich helps NM bild houses for the needey and so they can have a house for their children and so they can have a better life and we also go around helping cleen New Mexico like going around picking up trash and stuff oike that. this is one way that i think is a good way to help NM and if you want to here more about them you can go to the website @ habatforhumanity.com.
ReplyDeleteI think that is a good think that new mexico is triying to make onother states green to help our enviroment. I think that is going to help alot to be green. Is going to help the planet by the grobal warning. And it is going to help the earth by been clean and safe. Is it very helpfull of new mexico helping onothers states to be green and they are going to follow our idea around the world.I am proud that my state is going to help others.
ReplyDeleteI think that New Mexico is a good role model for the other states even though we dont have as many factories as some other states.It doesn't matter what the amount of pollution you produce because it is all harmful to the environment.The other states should step up to their responsibilities and help make the the Earth a clean and safe place.Going green now wasn't the best idea knowing that we had a lot of time to start conserving energy and how the economy is currently.It is a big step to take.
ReplyDeleteI think that New Mexico is doing something really good because it will help the enviorment. I think that other states should also start heading "Green" like New Mexico. Staying "Green" will help the enviorment and will help reduce and maybe stop global worming.
ReplyDeleteWell, wind energy is great but the turbines only work up to 30% of thier copasity, they dont work very well. If you live in the country, like a Rancher, and they put a farm like that right near you, it will mess with the value of your property and messing with the beauty of your property. There are other options for colecting enrgy and this is not the one.
ReplyDeleteMr. Noriega,
ReplyDeleteThis is Max. I believe this should have happened about three years ago but, I support this and think it shall help to change the future for New Mexico. I hope that this shall influence other states to do the same so polution can be reduced.
I think that this is a great choice that the state of New Mexico has made to be "Green." I believe that it is a responsiblity for humans to take special care of the environment in which they live. I just hope that more people will get involved in the "Green Movement."
ReplyDeleteI dindnt know that PNM had a program called "blue skies". honestly i think its a good start.The economy is bad but this should be a good start to making a greener earth.If more states do a plan like that the earth would be better...... Joel S.
ReplyDeleteThe fact that New Mexico is setting an example for other states to follow,with regards to becoming "green", is a great way for the rest of the country to recognize New Mexico as much more than a desolate wasteland. Many believe New Mexico to fit the stereotype of a desert with nothing more than cacti and roadrunners, but now New Mexico will be recognized as far more. Now New Mexico will finally do its part in preserving the world's diminishing natural resources. -Patrick Coronel
ReplyDeleteBecoming "green" is going to be good because people will try to help the world turn around from a destructive course and make the world cleaner. A good thing that is also that is coming with the projects to make New Mexico "green" is that the state might feel alot different from before, such as, cleaner air, smells less, and maybe a little cooler. It is going to be a long and difficult course for New Mexico because of the increase in taxes, new laws, and new building requirements. People are going to go through a home makeover when the time comes for buildings to have more enviromental friendly house and building units. - Christopher Q. Wu
ReplyDeletei think that new mexicos going "green" direction will show other states what direction we're heading in. Hopefully this will encourage startes that havent started to go "green" to make a change
ReplyDeleteNew Mexico is a great area to be harvesting different types of "clean" energy. There is plenty of open space to take advantage of for wind turbines. Every environment has some sort of alternative energy to take advantage of, and the concept of "green" housing can be utilized anywhere in the USA. If more and more communities were to put these powerful sources of energy and conservation to use and use New Mexico as a role model, it would be a giant leap for our civilization and making the world a cleaner place. -Brett Rodriguez
ReplyDeleteI think its a good thing especially concerning the way the ozone layer is and atleast NM is trying to do their part and help save the world by becoming a green state. Thats what I think and also the energy efficient homes is a good thing cause that means spending less money on light,water and gas and saving more money and also helping out the planet.By the way this is josh
ReplyDeleteEdit goggles789 said... I think its a good idea. Many states are starting to become green. Doing this would help New Mexico by making new and cheap energy sources such as wind turbines so we can save money for other things such as road repair, or cleaning and maintenance. It would also help the enviorment which we need with all the crap thats going on in the planet. If more people went green, the United States could start getting a better rep from other countries that have already gone green. -Colton Daggett
ReplyDeleteI think its good so we can help the environment. I also think that mabe other states can be green to. Help probus cline feul for the state and maybe it cold be she per saving the state a lot of money. A lot of people mite like using it better than gas or cool or eny other soars their using. These is the best thing that new Mexico has don
