[QUOTE="It will be fine, post: 2778269, member: 55017"] I do tend to think in government size collective solutions as we discuss public policy. I agree people need to make personal decisions that further the goals they are looking for in public policy. One of my first investments in my current house was new efficient windows. Sealing up the holes in your house goes a long way in HVAC efficiency. I think the biggest gains in renewable energy will come with improved battery tech. If people can store the solar energy they can create during the day at their house it can mitigate the need to generate electricity on the grid. Instead of focusing our resources on saving the coal industry, or making new nuclear plants, or expanding natural gas our government should be spending money on putting up wind farms. We should be researching better solar tech to make it so ridiculously cheap it would be folly not equip your house with panels. Renewable energy is the only realistic long term way to ensure American energy independence. [/QUOTE]
