And as solar and wind gains popularity the price of solar panels and windmills will go down. Same with electric and hybrid cars the costs will come down. Maybe it is just a dream, but I envision a world in the next decade or so where we can have cheap renewable energy fulfilling our every need. Even if we don't get there at least we have a President who wants the same thing as I do.
