Ah Patrick, you are my favorite grumpy old duuude! ;). There is never a perfect solution, and we need to use what we've got if it is better than oil and gas and coal. Would you rather we wait until the perfect solution came up? Solar panels ARE going up on roofs on homes and on buildings in many places, but that area often is insufficient to garner enough energy for that home or building's use alone. I see solar panels going up on highway medians and other places that are already denuded (so no trees cut down to make space for solar), and are required to be cleared... Just my thoughts. Do you have some specific solutions we can do now?
