Combined with solar, wind, hydro, and geothermal, we could completely eliminate fossil fuel use in the lower 48, maybe even Hawaii. Alaska would be trickier though. If we could switch to that being our energy production and everybody switched to electric cars and trucks we would drastically lower our pollution. The problem is a lot of people wouldn't want to do that. They don't want to make sacrifices for the better good of society. If we built a lot of solar farms in the west, wind farms on our coast lines people would complain about having the view ruined. All Skyscrapers should be collecting solar energy and wind energy to power the buildings with new solar windows and wind turbines. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Littleronin Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 You would think here. But it seems like a bulk of our lines are just buried. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
