What's wrong with it is that more renewable, cleaner forms of
energy just aren't very important. I live in Los Angeles, possibly
the most polluted city in America, and have to do a lot of driving.
Nonetheless, pollution is a minor problem to me and my energy
bills are low (even paying for Governor Dimbulb's machinations)
Fixing my dry eyes would be more important, never mind issues
like aging. Greenpeace's goals are good, but not particularly
important in the big scheme of things.
