Why not something that's cheaper, safer, and more environmentally sound?
Look, California has a lot of people living in it. Why would we relax the very laws that make it nice for us to continue to live here?
We put solar panels on my previous house-- they were not cheap, but the cost per unit of electricity over the next 10 years was comparable to the cost of electricity. Even if electricity costs didn't go up, which they did, we would have broken even in about 12 years. |
