The terrible circumstances of storm and negligence that have seen New Orleans face cataclysmic loss and a task of rebuilding new to American metropolitan areas must be answered with new ideas.
It is time to go renewable and bring in wind and solar power zero consumption homes to help the Crescent city become a leader in the modern self sufficient ideals once thought best embodied in Jeffersonian core philosophy.
The lake back channels for the Pontchartrain reservoir can be equipped with hydraulic sourcing units, and assisting air power generation.
Photovoltaics can be placed upon houses to add hot water capacity, alongside the ability of these panels to purify water through pasteurization in dire need instances for a home resevoir, finally they generate power for lighting and lower wattage appliances especially at peak hours, or directly to high need appliances such as refridgeration for insulin and other medicines.
It could immediately answer demands for households in the model of a 'nuclear family' that keeps an eye on usage and rationing...
These option in place could find another energy source from center of lake Ponchartrain in the aspect of wave motion power generators that can act in motor capacity on impetus and power grids in and outside of the city.
A photovoltaic roof could help power some lighting needs on the superdome and serve need in some civil capacity for the byproducts(pure hot water).
Real leaders see how change affects our great Crescent City and will help make it a leader of the new tech age while still having full recognition of its spirit and history.
The time for bold leadership is now who will be the person to make a statement for renewable power in the Gulf States rebuilding effort for quality life alongside enhanced competitive scale economy pricing for consumers and industry.
This is a chance to lead the way and let the rebuild inspire new markets and a new era for this millenium.
