I can't argue with the advantages of solar in the "LONG RUN". Unfortunately humans are notoriously short sighted. There is also a conflict of interest when so much money is being made in the oil industry. Technological advances have done a great deal of good. Don't get me wrong, but they have also caused most of the problems we have today. It seems every time we solve one problem we create two new ones. Slowly but surely, we are wearing this earth out, like an old pair of jeans. We keep putting patches on it, but I am not as hopeful as some that we are even capable of creating a utopia, even if all the political wrangling were to cease tomorrow. Again that does not mean we can just ignore the problems, and should not do what we can, but the way I see it, we are just rearranging the deck chairs on a slowly sinking ship.
