Question

There was a statement over at <a href="http://www.leftinthewest.com">Left in the West</a> that I was curious about. Since the public is not allowed to openly comment on the site I will pose my question here.<br />n<br />nJay <a href="http://www.leftinthewest.com/showDiary.do?diaryId=1108">made the comment</a> that "Now's the the time to start talking about cheaper, sustainable sources of energy that are locally owned. The technology is there, why aren't we using it?" My question is, what are these technologies that are cheaper, sustainable and locally owned? Links would be really nice to study them.<br />n<br />nIn the long run, if we want to get away from power technologies that don't add CO2 to the environment, they are not going to be cheaper than the carbon based alternatives. That's why we use the carbon based fuels, they are cheaper than the non-carbon based. I would be interested in these "cheaper, sustainable sources of energy that are locally owned." They might be sustainable and you might be able to do them locally but cheaper, I really doubt it. Information is the key. If these solutions are out there let me know. Don't just make blanket statements that they are widely available and leave it like that. Some of us may have questions.<br />n<br />n<strong>Who questions much, shall learn much, and retain much.
