You are not paying for the total cost of the electricity you use.

You pay for a portion of it, in money.

The other portion of it is belched up into the atmosphere for future generations to pay.

You are incurring debt and forcing it upon others.

>You are incurring debt and forcing it upon others.

You seem to have no problem whatsoever with using electricity yourself. So when do you get to tell me (or anyone else) how to live? And when does it stop? Btw, this is all bizarrely dramatic since we were talking about small local models anyway.

>future generations

Yeah, and some will also say (using the same arguments) that having children is harmful to the planet and we need "measures" to limit that too.
