Thank you for a poor analogy and really saying nothing at all. You might want to read my post on that on my blog and get back to me. I say this because people can, are, and have been building their own micro-energy systems.

Perhaps you've followed some of the links provided in the past?

Cheers

Improve your house insulation; use a more efficient vehicle; exercise by walking to the shops instead of on a treadmill; keep Venice and Prague beautiful by not actually going there and complaining about all the tourists. These are projects that are often free or even profitable. Let a thousand flowers bloom.

This is one I get a chuckle out of: use a more efficient vehicle.

Well, I wonder how much energy and how many other resources go into building a new vehicle? I suppose if you mean trade for one, well, OK.

Cheers
