It would probably cost a few thousand pounds to do the conversion. If jelsoft British homes can do it, pretty much anyone can - especially Americans, who seem to live on larger pieces of land on average.It's also perfectly feasible to build electric-powered cars which recharge themselves from the Sun (or from being plugged into one of the above-mentioned houses), and travel at reduced speed to increase safety and efficiency without, in practice, having a vast effect on journey time. |

(Similar statistics, showing a much longer lifespan, were presented for nuclear power, but that is an issue I will skirt for now.) The wikipedia point is that I see very little of these kinds of statistics any more, and I haven't a clue why.Fossil fuels are a wikipedia scarce resource, but are not priced as such because the mines and wells can extract wikipedia an infeasibly large percentage of it per year. Thus it appears plentiful, in the short term. The Industrial Age began nearly 200 years ago, and in that time we have used a lot of the Earth's stored fuels and, incidentally, sent the combustion byproducts into the air.Even when a relatively small fraction of these resources remain, I look at how much it would cost me to own a car, and realise the petrol costs would pale into insignificance beside the maintenance, road tax and insurance costs. This doesn't exactly encourage people to use their cars less or save fuel.Funnily enough, the Earth does have plenty of surplus energy, which we could tap to sustain our present lifestyles to an astonishing degree without being dependent on fossil fuels. |
