I love the green economy, but it is a temporary fix. Solar panels, solar thermal, geothermal, and wind farms will last for decades providing cheap (or free) power. I would love to produce my own power, and am working on a few projects of that sort currently.
But there goes some money that my power company would otherwise get, so they can't employ as many people (if thousands of people were like me and started producing more power than we consume).
