"It presents the fantasy that we (at least the pampered minority) can 'go green' and still keep our over-privileged lifestyles..." I used to get irked at all those designer home programs where Charles and Priscilla were building their very splendid "Eco-home" with all the latest "eco-technology"...that would cost millions in build resources thus defeating the purpose entirely because that meant the damn thing wasn't eco in the slightest. Having said that I'm caught in a personal quandary on this one because of the present energy idiocy and the totally crazy rise in prices. The idea of being a hostage to fortune to the criminal energy fraternity does not inspire me with confidence. Having a very accessible long south facing roof I reckon it might be a good idea to scrabble together every penny to do the solar panel thing and be independent from the grid before the intended sanctions against China kick in and triple the price of solar arrays.
