Takes more energy to produce that stuff and it’s been proven it is a pollutant. Good grief! The US is awash in oil and we have to resort to this? At one time we were an oil exporting country. Didn’t the oil embargo of the Seventies during Carter show the need for developing our own resources? Every president since has done absolutely nothing. Now we have Obamalamadingdong.
This another scam that will come to pass. Start using our natural resources instead of this pie in the sky crap.
Just because the earth has had a few billion years to develop the fuel that’s in the ground, doesn’t mean that it’s cheaper. All we are doing is acting like we have a trust fund, in terms of how we use it.
At some point, even if that point is 500 years in the future, we will have to consider alternatives. I’d rather have 500 years of technology and knowledge behind us on how to develop those alternatives then wait until we need it and then start to consider them.
I do agree with you that it’s more pie in the sky at the moment, but that doesn’t mean it will always be so.
