I think that's wrong to do. Renewables have a long ways to go before
they can generate the majority of the USA's energy needs but to
significantly cut back on their development is not a good idea, IMO.

The Union of Concerned Scientists reports that by 2050 renewable sources
could potentially supply 80 percent of our electrical energy needs.
That may be a little optimistic but it's heading in the right direction.
