Any activity has it's ramifications. Burning fossil fuels to move from place to place may not be the most efficient use of those materials.

An interesting aside is the kickstarter solar roadways program http://techcrunch.com/2014/05/25/the...olar-roadways/
But all the houses, boats, and shops on Martha's don't spoil the view... LOL, yeah go with that. LOL

It was the rich peeps not wanting ugly windmills in their backyard (ocean view).
