[QUOTE="OldWiseGuy, post: 76317776, member: 139156"] At the end of the day we need to reduce the use of fossil fuels as they add carbon that has been sequestered beneath the earth for millennia. We need to improve efficiencies in heating buildings, domestic and commercial water heating, and all forms of mechanized travel fueled by oil and gas. Much of this can be done by raising standards in these areas. For example we still allow inefficient water heaters to be sold. We also don't mandate that home insulation be updated to new standards. And we can certainly take advantage of more cost-effective methods of solar water heating. Sadly few are prepared for the work and sacrifice necessary to combat climate change. The [I]gap[/I] is too [I]strait[/I]. :( [/QUOTE]
