The only way we going to switch to green energy is if the government supports it. If the power companies and the public don't have an incentive to try any harder, more than likely, they're not going to try any harder. Look at how most people spend money on cars. The only reason most people are looking at things like a Toyota Prius instead of SUV's today, is because of rising gas prices. And the only solution Bush and McCain had for rising gas prices, was to allow the oil companies to drill anywhere they wanted.
Right now, we spend more money trying to find E.T. and sending idiots to Mars than we do trying to save our own planet. If we don't start funding alternative energy, we aren't going to be around to see anyone go explore space. God, let Obama start leading a change in all of this!
