the nice thing about hydro is that you can kind of turn it on and turn it off and have control and use it to balance your other renewable resources like wind and solar which are more intermittent. so, what are you going to use as a balancing strategy is certainly something that's facing all the utilities. it's not a simple thing to answer. obviously we've got santa nofres down and the california public utilities commission is very concerned about how they're going to keep the grid stable in southern california with that resource off line. >> commissioner wald? >> i just wanted to observe that, with cal's help at the last meeting of the policy committee, we gannon effort which will be continued at our next meeting to develop some recommendations for priorities for the department to pursue among the various strategies that will be laid out in the document. and we voted to recommend that the number one strategy that be pursued was achieving 100% renewable energy. and like i said, we're going to be continuing that conversation at our next meeting with the notion of helping the department f

apparently the fetus also suffers from water on the brain, hydro cephalus. and a possible heart problem. i think fluid on the brain not water. can you explain these issues how serious they are, what it means? >> they're very serious for the fetus. actually just the fetus. we don't have that many studies of fetuses living in mothers who are brain-dead that actually do well without any problems at all. usually because of the setting, it's very different to replicate the female physiology with machines. and so they're usually born with -- if they're born alive, they're usually born with some kind of deformities, anyway. so the fact that it's starting off with these things that they've seen, they can also do blood tests and they can also check the am knee niotic fluid. but even if the baby had no deformities at all, there's a very low chance that it actually would be born without some form of deformity. >> would these abnormalities that already exist, would they be the result of when she passed out and cutting off oxygen to the fetus? or to the mother's brain? d

for mexico as we have been covering, a package of economic reforms, the telecommunications power and hydro carbon sector getting opened up more to foreign investors. another reason that makes mexico look attractive. deutschee bank listed the peso among its top picks to buy in 2014. the mexico story linked to the u.s. economy. eww is the ishares mexico etf. i've got one more for you. poland. the polish currency getting drawn into the mix as the sell-off has been spreading across the emerging world. poland's economic growth this year is set to accelerate between 3%, 3.5%, that's faster than most of the countries in the region. the czech economy, for instance, the hungarian economy. poland's growth is also tied to a recovering euro zone, something we have seen. an etf tied to polish market plnd, that has been the hot play for investors last year. perhaps time to go back in as you can see, it has been sold off with broader emerging markets. so the punchline is this. if you're not bold enough to jump into the entire group or an entire emerging markets etf, it could be a cheap opportunity to go

we solved that with hydro stations. bring it down to compensate.e doing the same thing but a step further. explain. >> that's right. we don't need arise or four. we can build on the edge of town , but what we are doing is we take a giant industrial refrigerator powered i/o like .he city the refrigerator cleaned up a little bit. it refrigerate until it gets condensed. then we use condensed liquid air. that is acquired genic. atmospheric at pressure so the tanks don't have to be strong. insulated, and that keeps the environmental heat away from of operating. -- from evaporating. you can keep that in the tank. electricityt the back you take the liquid air, pump it to high-pressure, and the environmental heat that we obstructed. that makes the air expand. is 700 times more volume than in liquid form. we use that to drive a turbine and make electricity. >> it sounds incredibly simple and incredibly useful. kind of on demand power. is it sustainable? is it something we could have next to every industrial plant using extra heat? what is the potential? big

ability to build new hydro-storage has been severely curtailed by concerns.ndeed, there is a movement underway to remove these projects in california. nuclear power, in california, a plant is being closed. the prospect of going much more nuclear power in the u.s. or anywhere, for kachina and japan, that put a damper on that. at coal providing to our nation somewhere around 40% of the entire energy grid for electricity and yet we have the war on coal and investigations like this and regulations as my colleague mentioned a while ago on the 2008 rule, more on stream buffers versus the 1983 rule. i do not understand what is going on with the changing of the rules like that. what alternatives will be in the cole, a currently large chunk of the nation's energy supply, and how that will ,e replaced in federal terms which, i guess a waiver was made the choppingllow up of eagles and other raptor then, solar, which, you know, might be ok, but it is quite expensive as long as incentives keep coming. other things over solo. -- solar. it is difficult for me to .nderstand

the administrator can talk more about this working through existing international forms to deal with hydro fluoro carbons that have a global warming potential, as well as working on issues around clean energy and promoting clean energy and technologies around the world. >> perhaps you and the the administrator could provide me with examples, and if there are costs involved, i would be interested in thoughing that as well. >> certainly. >> thank you. the epa regulations on coal fired power plants are required by law to be technologically viability and commercially available. while the epa insisted publicly that carbon capture technology is technologically viable, there's serious doubt that epa officials actually believe this to be true. i'm going to highlight a 2012 e-mail exchange that was produced through a freedom of information act request between joan cocuet and michael and alex baron, both in the agency office policy at the time. he forwarded an article regarding your comments on proposed ccs regulations. in the article you were quoted as saying, while it's a significant economic lift

it's hydro electric so it's grooerchb green injury. and we're generating electricity. in germany, it's 46, 48 cents a kilowatt. so the cost of manufacturing in europe is just so much more costly than what it is in europe. this is one of the reasons why you're hearing from many executives on looking to move businesses out of europe into the united states. and i think that trend will continue. in addition, you have chancellor merkel. she needed to what i would say move somewhat left to get her coalition. so this is not -- it's a contract, but they have it finalized in germany. but germany, her coalition has agreed to lower iing retirement age and increasing minimum wage. now, i pound the table about loj longevity and people are living longer. i believe that's going to be the major crisis worldwide. i don't think the trend of shortening retirement age is the right trend. if anything, we should be educating all of citizens about the benefits of longevity and the opportunity to work longer, to have a more productive life. and so i think it's going to totally wrong way. >> w

no one knew horizontal drilling was going to open up these vast amounts of hydro carbons. think this is really exciting. i don't think you can overstate how much this is going to help our manufacturing base and help us compete with the low labor costs. >> i want to know what the geopolitical implication comes. we have relied on the middle east and -- how much should we snicker and go like this? >> how much should we pay to protect? >> that, too. >> for a very long time, we've paid a lot of money to be the global police or, really, the police for the middle east because we had -- we had interests there. >> looking at china, in china, they have shale reserves greater than what we have in the united states, it's just more complicated to get to that. but part of that is because they're in regions where there's not infrastructure to bring oil and gas back. if china builds out its infrastructure, you could look at massive reserves there. >> you think about how people said it won't be internet companies, it will be what the intent does to everybody else in terms of productivity t
