Renewable Energy for Dummies

In  desperation for more and more cash from their "business," self-declared freelance writers will often publish – or more likely, simply reword – information about any topic that filters into their pointy little heads. We've already seen one moron pouring her heart out about the proper technique for changing light bulbs. Here's another one, who decided that renewable energy was a hot topic. Regardless of being ill- or un-informed on the topic, InfoBarrel's jennaflames still decided to share her wisdom with the article she called "Green Power Is Renewable Energy And Environmently Friendly."¹ Your first clue that she's a dumbass comes from the title: she can't even spell "environmentally"... Here are some choice bits of wisdom from the delightfully dumb Miss Jenna:

"The main source of energy is the sun. It provides heat, warmth and light. It also gives us solar energy so that we can use it as substitute for electricity.

Why, thanks for that valuable information, Jenna: we had no idea solar power is a substitute for electricity!

"Counties such as Australia have been using solar energy to get their electricity and it has worked successfully so far. The only downside to it is that it can not be used at night since the sun is absent."

Leaving aside for now the fact that Australia is a country, not a county, it pains us to have to point out that the sun isn't "absent" at night. If she believes that, she must think the Earth is flat and people fall off the edge if they go too far...

"The good thing is that renewable energy can be just as good but at the same time cause absolutely zero damage to the area we live in."

"Absolutely zero damage"? We're pretty sure even the most ardent supporter of renewable energy would shudder at that bit of misinformation. Getting paid to write at the level of a fifth grader and to spread misinformation is quite a trick – even more so if you're the Dumbass of the Day like Ms Jenna.
