Though some people may argue about "renewables" the fact is that it is all a matter of time-frame. Solar power, for example, is not renewable. Once it is all used up, it will not "renew" itself -- and this "using up" process is quite independent of our usage of it, as it happens. The time to depletion may be somewhat long, but it still has a time to depletion. Oil and Gas, however, is a "renewable" resource and as a mere physical and chemical process it is occurring at this very moment. The "greenies" simply have bad colloquial language usage. This is probably as a result of a failure to understand even rudimentary physics and chemistry and operating on miniscule time-scales. On the other hand, the aliens could be quite pissed when they return to retrieve their fuel stash and discover that we have used it all. -- Be decisive. Make a decision, right or wrong. The road of life is paved with flat squirrels who could not make a decision.
