wind and solar still reach less than two percent of the total.

To be fair and to your point transportation shouldn't be included since wind and solar are pretty much strictly used for the generation of electric. Also with new technology we are just now seeing 3 to 5MW turbines.

You only need to look at Denmark for a can do example. They produce nearly 20% of their power with wind and manage to export 90% of their total national production. Some how they have turned Wind power into a 3 billion euro industry. They must be an amazing people to overcome such an imposable feat.

There is another chart I could have used that is solely electric generation.

But I decided this chart is best because of all the talk of electric powered transportation which will have to be recategorized into the electrical generation slice of the pie.

The media never explains this. Energy is energy. The media seems to imply that if we just turn to electric cars we'll no longer need fossil fuels.
