That’s funny because I had the exact same thoughts. And the truth is I really don’t know for sure if my power is now all renewable or not. And I’ll concede there’s other things I’ve done too which I don’t know for certain really make any difference.
But let’s say we can go forward 100 years and see how it all turns out…lets say it turns out you’re right and everything I’m doing is insignificant and climate change was just part of the natural ebb and flow. Personally I’m fine with that because basically that means at most I wasted some money and time (I've also been known to waste some money in Vegas on occasion).
Bottomline is I can be wrong and no harm done. Your approach...you basically
can't be wrong.
