Why Do Plants Use Chlorophyll For Energy Production When A Black Chemical Would Be More Efficient?

Doesn’t the fact chlorophyll reflects green light make it less efficient at absorbing energy than a darker chemical? Plants seem to be green the world over, regardless of the amount of sunlight available – why aren’t they shades of grey? (i.e. lighter in regions where there is ‘too much’ light, and darker in regions where there is less light available)

Would You, Like Me, Support The Ban Of All Forms Of Energy Production Except Green?

No.
We can’t simply snap our fingers and fix global warming. It’s going to take hard work to do it and still keep things going.
We need to conserve energy. That doesn’t mean not doing things, it means doing them more efficiently.
We need to develop alternative energy sources, nuclear, solar, wind, bio fuels. It’s going to take time and what we’ll do is gradually replace fossil fuels over many years.
Done right we can do it with minimum disruption of our lives. What you propose is both impossible as a practical matter and politically. It’s utterly unrealistic.

How Energy Efficient And “green” Is Banknote Production?

What Courses Do I Take To Learn About Alternative Energy And It’s Production?

I just started College and I’m going the chemistry major route. I’m looking into physics but wasn’t sure if that would teach me all I wanted to know. I’d like to know as much as possible about green energies, agriculture, oceanography, and basically everything required to make a biosphere. Sadly there are no Biosphere science classes.. So I’m gonna start with energy. Any suggestions?
