'''Green energy''' -- often a misnomer -- consists of renewable energy sources such as solar cells and [[windmill|wind turbines]], which may cause more harm to the environment than traditional energy sources or nuclear energy.  Sometimes green energy fails when it is particularly needed, as in windmills typically not working on the coldest days in northern areas.

The weather is rarely predictable and relying on an unpredictable system for energy is risky at best.

Green energy is almost always less efficient than fossil fuels and nuclear energy, and almost always promoted by liberals despite this inefficiency.

As an example of the idiocy of green energy, a study in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences revealed that "Offshore hurricanes could demolish half the [[turbine]]s in proposed [[wind farm]]s just off the [[USA]]'s coastlines."<ref>http://www.usatoday.com/weather/storms/hurricanes/story/2012-02-12/wind-farms-hurricane-danger/53083084/1</ref> On the other hand, offshore oil and gas platforms are becoming more resilient to hurricanes (even though past hurricanes have significantly impacted their operations).<ref>Axtman, Kris.
