Yeah, he has some stuff wrong. Like coal is no longer the majority of the electric generation (around 40% and dropping last I checked). And going to restaurants could easily waste more energy than preparing food at home. And electric cars are actually much cleaner than he says even in dirtier power generation states. Plus, they get cleaner over time as we clean up the grid. I'm probably going 100% solar soon because it's really getting cheap (just have to see if I'm going to move first). And buying clothes from China and then donating them instead of washing them is just super wasteful. Someone else is just going to wash them anyway.
+1 forummm. You go guy.
I'd like to be able to hit these high points myself:
- high efficiency at home
- dramatically dropping power consumption
- simplifying in the kitchen and other places,
- implementing solar (both SHW and PV)
Would I switch to a butane stove? No. I mostly cook with propane on the grill outside or microwave oven inside. You can work miracles with a slow cooker/crock pot and sale meats. I'm just not going to give up that capability - I'll go "solar oven" first, with a crock pot on backup.
