Rubbish, the technology exists for anyone to live off the grid if they choose to.They provide the lights? That's a choice , you don't need coal or gas to provide the lights.
Everyone who lives in the modern workd uses electricty, it's not the consumers fault.
It is the fault of the polluters, their lobby groups and the polititions they donate to.
Sorry , but a poor argument.
Freo have a choice to promote an emmiter, or get another sponsor.
Consumers don't have that choice.
Course it would be hideously expensive if they wanted reliable power. It would shift a lot of people into poverty.
Also potentially hideously inconvenient to ride a bike everywhere instead of take a car. Or to have cold showers. Or to rug up in winter instead of running a heater.
