There is a silent war going on among nations. The nation who controls and manages there resources and create new ones wins. We all know that the world resources is starting to get use up and new energy. They develop the next power source. Our generation I afraid have become too arrogant and selfish, to get to the next level of evolution. We are a failure in that regards when looking back through history and see what our past has achieved.

I do know alternative energies are more expensive, or the government would not be looking to pass cap n trade to drive up the cost of conventional energy and to make alternatives more competitive. The exact numbers don't matter. It was just an illustration of how it does not create wealth. I did do a quick google and found this article. My numbers were wrong, but the ratios weren't too far off. <a href="http://kn.theiet.org/magazine/issues/0913/costs-of-going-green-0913.cfm" rel="nofollow">http://kn.theiet.org/magazine/issues/0913/costs-of-going-green-0913.cfm</a> Dave, unfortunately, I don’t have time to research everything I want to quickly write on.

You would be able to get 10kwhs for you $100. Now, let’s say with green energy it costs $20/kwh. I don’t know the ratio, but I know it’s more expensive." I'd do some digging, find the facts on what the cost ratio of green energy/conventional energy is, and start the article with those facts. Then make the point. Other than that a good article, but it collapses around that weakness. “Now, say it costs $10/kwh when power is produced by coal (I know nothing about electricity, so please don’t laugh).
