Cost is the main driving force behind the extensive use of fossil fuels and other non-renewable resources.

Renewable resources such as hydroelectric, solar, and wind energy are generally far less polluting than non-renewable resources. What could be more available than sunlight and wind?

Petroleum is unmatched in its ease of use, and fossil fuels and nuclear energy can be used as needed.

The biggest problem with renewable resources such as solar and wind energy is that their availability is intermittent, and we have no affordable technology for storing large amounts of energy.
