Is there a viable alternative to using fossil fuels?

Question

Is there a viable alternative to using fossil fuels?

Answer 1

of course.  We could also use rats!

Answer 2

yes, but no one single solution.  They will have to be used as a package.  Solar, wind, and cell technologies are probably the best.  Some of the money hungry people sometimes forget that all the money in the world means nothing if the earth inhabitable.  These are the same people that want to put nuclear plants everywhere.  One big issue they fail to mention and the opponents of nuclear fail to ask is:  What are we going to do with all of the nuclear waste from these hundreds of new plants that John McCain and others want to build?

Answer 3

Oh sure - there's a whole list of them.  One of the big tragedies of our country is the "election" of Li'l Bush because without any leadership we never ever discussed anything about energy - or started any energy programs.  

Li'l Bush's mission was to get the gas prices up and FEED those Super Rich friends of his.  And he was quite successful with that.

But now with actual leadership we can look into all sorts of things - geo-thermal, wind, solar, tides - and who knows what else might pop up which we never ever thought of!   Now we have to build a different infrustructure, but we wasted 8 long years where we could have been doing something besides just paying Bush's friends and making enemies of the whole world!!
