45% of the electricity generated in the US comes from fossil fuels.



Gee, does that mean 55 percent doesn't? Well, then, why do anything?

What are you righties so scared of?

BAR was in error and corrected himself.

Using round numbers, 70 percent is from fossil fuels.
19 percent from nuclear reactors.
10 percent from solar, geothermal, wind, etc.

Where's hydro? Rest of the country giggles about all our rain but we
end up laughing last.

Washington is the leading hydroelectric power producer in the Nation.

Hydroelectric power accounts for nearly three-fourths of State
electricity generation.

And we sell that power to suckers in neighboring states.
