Step away from MSM. There are so many things wrong with this and long since debunked. We will need all forms of energy in the coming years, and can't afford to just walk away from any at this point. As technology advances, some can be removed, but that will depend on local needs and resources. Forget politics and look to advancement. All politicians have an agenda. FWIW... I agree with you on the "green" movement.
Pirate: You said: '"renewables" are not renewable". That statement is, as you know well, incorrect.. If current manufacture of solar panels and wind turbines need some components derived from crude oil, THAT does not make the energy source non-renewable.
