Your next car may not have a tailpipe, but the electricity that charges it comes almost all from fossil fuels (smokestacks) and nuclear. Wind and solar make up less than 3.5% and are projected by the feds to be about 10% in 2035. Hydro is being severely curtailed by the environmentalist and now are less than 10%. When alternatives are a good buy (unsubsidized) I will be the first on my block to have them, but I am not going to buy the pie in the sky line being sold here. It is all about what IS possible, not what you want it to be. You can right now generate all of you home power from wind and solar. Just buy it yourself.

I get that there is a way to go but for many households (including mine) all the power comes from hydro and has for decades. The other thing is regardless of how slow the US moves in this direction many countries in the world get significant amounts of power from renewable sources, water, wind, solar, tidal. I concur with being realistic and not following the pie in the sky but we have to walk before we run. I just don't understand the resistance to forward thinking.
