Well said. People …
Well said. People need to stop worrying about money and start worrying about the future.

There’s no reason why we couldn’t all be running off solar power right now. The technology is there. It doesn’t take huge solar panel arrays either, just set a medium sized panel on every house, and connect it to the grid. Convert power plants to hydrogen fuel cell “energy storage plants” to provide energy during dark hours.

Do you run your car all the way dry? Then why wait until the planet runs dry?

They are so …
They are so expensive because they are hard to make. They take lots of time and ENERGY (from your coal power plant) to make. It is actually a net LOSS in energy after the panels are made (up until about 10 yrs). Meanwhile, while you are saving your off to pay for the panels, you are wasting time using coal power at work and home.
Its simple - if they were cheaper and easier to make, they would actually be a net+ in price as well as environment.

the reason is not …
the reason is not to save “money” but the planet we live on moron.
there are more important forms of energy to save.

“conveniences” like energy companies providing all you need “cost” too much.
where do you think the energy company gets it’s “energy” from?

people like this guy are more concerned with investing in our planet’s future. he doesn’t care that it costs money because money is less important to him, he believes in a better place for us.

Cat batteries don’t …
Cat batteries don’t last long in deep cycle use. Get a trolling battery or a marine battery. They’ll last a couple of years. A fork lift battery would last a good deal longer.
