Environment & Energy

Perhaps the label “Green” is a misnomer, and “Greener” or “less harmful than burning fossil fuels” is more accurate.

I drive a plug in hybrid, and 90% of my driving is in EV mode. As I mentioned my electricity comes from hydro, so regardless of whatever fossil fuels were used to manufacture my vehicle, I burn very little in my daily use.

I noticed you didn’t propose an alternative to renewables to mitigate the effects of burning fossil fuels, do you have one. You made no specific mention of wind or solar either.

IMO, renewables are, at the very least, a valid interim measure until technology advances and lifestyle changes can provide a viable long term, sustainable energy grid that can reduce or, hopefully, eliminate dependence on fossil fuels.
