Letter to the Editor: Wind, Solar Supplement Fossil Fuels

Letter to the Editor
Columbus Dispatch

claims about how bad the energy-efficiency targets are that the Ohio legislature enacted in 2008. Most of his claims were
untrue.

cost?

Who has the oil? Who uses the oil?

“The United States consumes more than 20,000,000 barrels of oil per day but has less than 2 percent of the world’s remaining oil."
