| Message | We encourage renewable energy sources, however certain Unions have more potential for developing these. For example regions at the coasts can estimate better whether propellors should be installed in proportion to tourism/sea routes/needs of their cities. Perhaps it might be better to leave this decision up to them. |
| Date | 08:59:28, November 10, 2005 CET | From | United Centrists | To | Debating the Renewable Energy Initiative |
| Message | Though the individual Unions may have better insight as to where renewable energy sights could be located, we fear that they may not be able to pay the costs of such facilities on their own. Government subsidies have the potential to solve this problem. |

| Random fact: Any RP law granting extraordinary "emergency powers" or dictator-like powers to a government must be passed by at least a 2/3rds majority, but (like all RP laws) may always be overturned by a simple majority vote of the legislature. |
