Food for thought: cheap fast food and cheap oil...

The New York Times released a comprehensive evaluation of American green power programs and found that only 2% of households can voluntarily afford electricity powered by renewables.

The study reveals that while green power may be expensive now, resources like wind and sunlight are free and safe from the price jumps found in oil, coal, or natural gas.

Cheap fast food - the majority can afford it but does anyone agree that it is good for you, especially in the long run? So are you willing to pay more and seek out healthier foods? Hmmm...
