mention the fact that there is a tax credit for getting solar panels on your home.

Use a clothesline instead of the dryer.

Don’t worry, even Al Gore did not get much attention when he appeared on the Jon Stewart show last week. Gore is sponging off the Gov to get rich. And Stewart rubbed it under his nose.
I would start with a futuristic look of solar power. Ask ur audience how they see energy in 25 years from now. Write those ideas down and make a comparison to what exists already. Ask what in their daily life they would like to see free. I bet u they will say free gas for my car. Forge further and ask if more sophisticated toys and tools will be around by the middle of the century, like solar powered weapons and space batteries that can return to earth loaded with energy to light up a city or two.
If i look back 30 years when i rented my first apt, i remember using hot water from a primitive solar hot water system at the rear of the house made of thin tubes of water pipes in a black painted box and the contents of that entire water system was enough for one shower.
Other houses had more modern ones on top of their house. Over the whole block u saw several houses, each with some homemade water heater capable of serving the entire family with hot water for bathing and kitchen needs.
In Florida a tank the size of an oil drum heats up within a hour in Aug.
This kind of thinking goes into planning for solar energy.
One day all roofs will be with water heaters installed, not only in FL but in Arizona and the Sahara dessert. Solar is cheapest if u can build the equipment economically. (Right now that is one industry the Obama adm should sponsor to create jobs – but job creation is not in his elitist league).
Jay Leno ridiculed Obama too when the cash4clunkers program ran. Leno, who has an electric car on a lot next to his studio where celebreties come to compete on a circuit, brought up with a smile the notion that this car which runs on batteries could be in fact a solar powered car and would get a lot more attention thanks to his show than the soon forgotten clunkers.
Still electric cars could be cheap in the run if recharging stations were in fact solar powered.
Most municipalities could use solar powered vehicles for their vehicles other than police. There have been solared powered trucks on the streets of Belgium since i was a teen in the 60s. The large panels of these trucks plus most parking spaces covered with panels could provide an enormous amount of solar energy reserves.
Solar power is of course already on many signs on roads and highways and u can joke to ur audience that if they had a ticket driving thru the red lite they may have gotten a photo snapped by a solar powered camera.
Solar power is also on some ocean liners and luxury yachts, and not just for water heating only but to power the light and navigation equipment. Russians have a solar powered propeller airplane that lands on water and is in use in Venezuela.
By now u had ur introduction and u can move on to the bigger picture: which countries are investing the most in solar and who will be the ones saving and who not. I bet u Al Gore has a website with lots of inspiration. U should also look into Australian sites and European like Spain, the leader in solar.
Good Luck.

There are many more pros than cons to Solar Power. Check out our White Paper on the subject:Residential Solar Technology Made Simple
This should provide you with plenty of ammunition.
