Looking forward to the day (I think coming sooner rather than later) when renewable energy drives oil prices down even more than they already are. Those Saudi Royal murdering (see link below) bastards are losing money. So is Putin and Tillerson.
As solar derived energy grows they lose power and grow less influential upon the real world's stage. Putin hates these sanctions and Tillerson almost had that big deal via Exxon/Mobil and Vlad. Darn it. Lol.
Look to Merkel of Green Germany.
Interesting times.

Our 2011 Suv gets double the gas mileage as our 2004 did,same make same model with one size motor upgrade.
Just think of the Fuel savings Lancaster California is enjoying with a total electric bus fleet.

(5,268 posts)This is my 3rd summer with an electric mower (and trimmer too) that is amazingly convenient, lightweight, easy to operate and keep clean.
This great mower that comes with 2 quick rechargeable batteries is now much cheaper at Lowe's than I paid 3 years ago
Hard to understand why there were no electric battery mowers with sufficient size and power to be practical for homeowners with sizable yards until 2014. Considering our modern technologies, a total travesty that it took so long for consumers to have this option
