Thus, biodiesel from waste products, ethanol production, oil from ANWR, oil from shale, off-shore oil, expanded nuclear, etc., are all considered unrealistic answers to the problem of energy production because no one of these solutions appears to be the single answer.
However, if each of these potential sources can add modestly to our overall domestic energy production, we would greatly expand overall energy production, and be able, if we decided as a country, to reduce reliance on foreign energy imports.
I thought that my closing sentences were consistent with your point......
" The point is that different technologies are promising. We should not over promote any of them and we should develop all of them that we can, but not put too much faith on any of them as "the single solution to our future." "
Dear Robert357,
Yeah, I was agreeing with you. That's why I quoted from your final sentence to start my post. ;-)
I was just noting that a lot of folks take a different tack.
