A century from now, the sun will be shining and the wind blowing across the same spaces that produce that electricity generated today, available to be captured as power we can use. 

Meanwhile, oil, gas, and coal drillers and miners will have to alter and pollute millions more acres, streams, and air to find new sources as today's run out. 

This is truly a "no-brainer."  Renewables are the present, near, and long term future.
