Green living has been making a definite surge in the last few years, with the development of sustainable energies like solar and wind power. Renewable energy is already very much essential to the UK economy, with more than a quarter of the overall energy produced in the UK. While it may still seem a long way to go before we’re all living sustainably, the eco-revolution is already coming in small waves all around the world and transforming the way we live in our homes.

Senior energy analyst Glenn Doty wrote the following to a commenter who challenged the validity of renewable energy from a financial perspective and referred to those of us who are concerned about climate change as “alarmists.” It’s so solid and concise that I thought I’d reproduce it here, and then comment on it below.

There are many alternatives to gasoline and diesel even now. There are commercially produced vehicles powered by electricity, solar panels, hydrogen fuel cells, hybrids, and biofuels. Converting a standard gasoline engine to use biofuels is not difficult. The problem for most businesses is a lack of infrastructure to sustain these vehicles.
