That may be true. And I know very few people opposed to the concept of “green” or “renewable” energy. Or whatever you want to call it. The more diverse sources of electricity feeding the grid, the less like the grid is to fail. The issue is government interference with the natural adoption of these technologies by subsidizing them. If they are better, the market will adopt them.

Overall, I agree with your sentiment... but being diverse [especially with solar and wind] makes for less reliable power. It can't be stored and is too variable.
