What does it mean to us?

Energy we can capture, store, and use locally is inherently cheaper not just in the cost to us, but we believe it is also in terms of the environment on a macro scale. For example, electric vehicles may cost drivers less, but the cost on the environment may or may not be comparable or worse than the impact of traditionally fueled vehicles.

We should gather energy like plants.

Energy comes in many different forms. More for this later.
