The Renewable energy earth loving crowd is farce for the most part. people want to be associated with it because it is trending up.
Next time you see a prius or a volt driving down the road ask yourself where the energy came from to charge the batteries to fuel that vehicle? More than likely from an electrical outlet in a home connected to the grid fed by coal driven turbines or nuclear rarely solar never wind.
The other thing to consider is what do we do with all the batteries when they have outlived there usefulness? Where do they go and how are they recycled. If you want to drive a hybrid or electric do it to save on energy costs not to save the planet your logic is flawed.
Those curly lightbulbs that you put in your home and they save you money. Loaded with Mercury. Not really a green alternative unless recycled properly.
