    That’s really hard to make a song with.

    The wheels on the bus are battery powered, battery powered, battery powered. The wheels on the bus are battery powered all through the town.

    Ok, so maybe not that hard but it certainly not as catchy.

      You’re absolutely right we should be installing non carbon energy sources to replace diesel.

        For backup power. You know they aren’t always running, right? Oil products only produce a bit over 3% of global electricity.

          Nuclear and renewables with battery storage are the two options I hear about frequently. I have solar panels on my house, so am quite aware they don’t produce during the night :)

          Nuclear is a great option we should be investing more in rather then coal, oil, or methane gas plants.
