A thought...

Something that occurred to me: if you have oil or natural gas sitting in the ground and sun hitting the earth today or wind blowing, you can decide to use one for energy. If you take the oil/natural gas out of the ground and use it, you have power today. You can of course do the same thing with solar or wind. The thing is, if you burn the oil/gas, it is gone and can not be used tomorrow. The wind and solar, on the other hand ...

So maybe before we drill more oil/gas drills, we should max out our solar/wind capacity. Then, after that, we can judge how much more oil/gas we need.
