    I'm revisiting the poorly titled thread (should have been "Why environmentalism isn't working and what we can do about it) because of something I read recently.
    you do know that you can edit the title in the OP right? it would go forward reflect that change, see my example in this post.

    Hey... ta-da! Thanks Mickyrat! :D

    Thank you, JonnyPistachio. As much as I want to applaud this, it does raise some concerns for me. One of my close relatives works with environmental law and he pointed out that some of the vast arrays of solar panels in the great basin area are destroying sensitive habitat. Although this is a better solution than oil dependency, I think we have to see the broader picture- that using much less energy in general is the only way to even approach sustainability.

    In any case, thanks for keeping watch on this subject and looking for solutions!
