Alternative Energy

Solar, wind and biomass energy are available alternative (renewable) energy sources. Harnessed on a mass scale using existing technologies, these alternative energy sources can easily meet the nation’s electrical needs, Freeman says. He calls for a concerted 30-year effort to close aging coal-fired and nuclear power plants and replace today’s cars with plug-in hybrid vehicles.

Freeman charges that the reason we aren’t already using more renewable energy is that oil companies and electrical utilities have waged a slick campaign to deceive Americans.
