1.0 INTRODUCTION
Malaysian must put a ‘price’ on carbon, set regulations and pour money into research and development and let Malaysian ingenuity meet the market force for clean energy. This strategy would not only help the world avoid the worst of climate change, it will end our dependence on hostile foreign regimes that we rely for oil. Everything that we would actually do in response to climate change would make us healthier as a country, stronger, more innovative, and more energy secure. This is not just generating power in the sense of light; this is about generating a power period.

We must know that innovation is the path to climate and energy salvation (Ref.: www.projo.com).
