Slide 19 of 25 - Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesota Hailstorm and Flash Flood of 1 July 1997

There were several instances of storm sewer caps being blown off by the inte ... [Read More]

I invite you to think with me about thatfuture, and an early look at the future this morning, right here in St.Paul. I toured a plant that harnesses the best of newtechnology to produce energy that is cleaner and more efficient andmore affordable. The plant boils enough water to heat 146major office buildings in downtown St. Paul. Not a bit ofenergy is wasted -- not even the waste. The excess heatgenerated as the water boils is captured and used to create steam,which generates still more electricity to power pumps and to deliverheat. ... [Read More]
