There are all kinds of alternative sources of heat and power; Hydroelectric, wind turbines, wave power, solar, geo-thermal. Many people, like President Bush, for example, use these in their homes to save money on their power bills and to reduce their impact on the environment. Others, however, like Ted Kennedy, virulently oppose such measures because they might not be pretty.
When environmentalism is from the heart it is rarely loudly and crassly bandied about. Living in a way that makes the most of the least is cheaper and easier in most cases, the environmentalists, however, would rather scream and shout and ***** and whine than calmly encourage using alternative sources of energy. Sooner or later someone will have a brilliant invention in alternative power that, like Edison's light bulb will change the face of the world.
