Can we find a better word for certain energy resources than “renewable”?
Yesterday I cruised Yahoo’s best answers and saw a question about the most efficient renewable resources. The answer chosen as best may have been the best of those given. I wasn’t much impressed. To me the word “renewable” applies to corn-based ethanol, switch grass and the like. When one brings up wind, geothermal, electromagnetic, solar, tidal, hydroelectric, or any reliably recurring natural force, the term “virtually unlimited” strikes me as being more accurate. This answerer had abandoned hydroelectric because it kills fish. If current methods of tapping this resource kill fish, let’s fix our methods, not give up on the resource. Same with solar power. The answer I saw dismissed solar power as “not worth mentioning” later citing occasonal cloud cover as a problem. I believe in human ingenuity. Someone has invented or could invent a solar battery that could power Manhatten through a month of overcast if power and oil companies would sponser it. Fat chance, right?
That is the attitude I want to see . This give up attitude just drives me up a tree. If we don’t know how today study we will find an answer tomorrow . Go there are plenty of problems out there .
