Homey,
I agree that solar panels on roof tops is a good answer....IF, they are manufactured smartly. Of the top 10 solar panel manufactures 6 are based in China, 2 based in SE Asia (Japan & Korea), 1 based in Canada, and 1 based in USA. Of course here in the PNW, not all roofs receive significant sunlight--compared to So Cali.

If a solar panel is manufactured using electricity generated from coal (China), how "green" is it? Are there "greener" options?
Wouldn't it be nice if every consumer product identified that amount of carbon emissions produced during manufacturing. Kinda like my drum beat for "carbon parity" and "mileage breakeven" information for BEVs.
Caveat emptor.
