Electricty has the possibilty of being generated by renewable resources. Skipping the pie in the sky promises of wind and solar, hydrogenerators and nuclear reactors are realites that produce enormous amounts of energy.

"Electricty has the possibilty of being generated by renewable resources."

Like?

Our cars use a huge amount of energy. The electrical generation system is already max'ed out in this country. If you transfer all the energy used by cars onto the electrical system it would at least double the demand for electricity (probably triple or more).

Renewable sources are not anywhere near meeting our demands now. We burn mostly natural gas and also burn large amounts of coal and oil now. Nuclear is not a "renewable" resource and is becoming a smaller and smaller source of electricity here currently.
