While Woodsy and XCR-700 do well to remind us of the environmental problems with current alternative energy sources, we still all need to get on board with the effort to support these other sources. The sooner we do so, the sooner scientists will have the support they need to improve existing energy technologies and discover new ones. The current imperfect state of our knowledge and technology is not a reason to condemn or avoid electrification; it's a reason to support it so we can move forward. This should have been done decades ago.
