... You can improve w/a wind turbine when cloudy and/or night time, but it's still a clusterfuck for the home owner...
Also, I wanted to mention that bit about the turbine.
Nope, sorry, you cannot have one. Why? Because it will kill birds, make too much noise, and block the ocean views.
New England is prime oceanic real-estate for a windfarm, but nobody wants it here because it will "destroy their view of the ocean". NIMBY shit to a T. Oh, and it will kill seabirds.
You cannot have kinetic wave motion generators in the ocean either, because it will kill "all the fishes and whales".
You cannot have solar because it will take up too much land, which we need for the precious earthland creatures to graze and fart on.
So everyone wants an alternative energy source, but every alternative has too many drawbacks that their vanity cannot accept, to save this planet. They say this as they suck their Evian water from petro-chemically produced disposable water bottles that they simply toss into the trash bin, instead of the recycle bin. And they complain about it on their petro-chemically-produced smartphones, using energy to recharge them from the very fossil fuels they shun which also produced their make-up, cheep shoes and containers they re-heat their microwave dinners in, which come in petro-chemically produced plastic containers.
And THAT is just the tip of the iceberg.
This world is doomed because the people in it, doom it for the dumbest vain reasons. Me, me, me, now, now now. It is disgusting.
We need to get back to the 1980s, when people were smart and knew how to handle themselves and the world, not run to mommy and daddy about shit they did not understand. No phones, no Internet, just their own minds and judgment, with a respect for others.
