[AccessD] Getting rid of fossil fuel dependancy

[Jim Lawrence]

That environment, minus volcanoes describes our province and we are not alone. There are countries in Africa and South America that have appropriate natural conditions. The region of Scandinavia are also working to achieve similar results. Then there are regions through out north Africa that have a stellar results from the combination use of wind and solar power. 

There are hundreds of countries that have already achieved a certain level energy independence. They are not all near a hundred percent but every percentage move toward energy freedom is a positive move. Considering a decade or so ago renewable energy was little more than a concept.

Yep, pity that there aren't any other  countries  fortunate enough to be able to generate 95% 
of their electricity needs from hydro (80%) and  geothermal (15%).

That's what you can do with a small population, no major industry, highly volcanic 
mountainous terrain and the 4th highest rainfall in the world.    

Hardly an exemplar for any other nation.   But the greenies sure do love to ignore the details 
and pretend that it is a feasible option for everyone.
