Kristin Said:

Which alternative energy source do you think is most practical?

We Answered:

I think you have to look at the particular climate and environment you live in, e.g. hours of sunlight, amount of wind, closeness to a suitable river system, closeness to the ocean, availability of hot-rocks and geothermal activity. All of these natural assets can be used to provide power in a clean and economical way. I think the best sources of "Green Power" are Hot-rocks/Geothermal sites and wave power as they seem to use the least use of expensive technology to utilise them. I think they would also leave the smallest "footprint" on our precious environment.
