it is extremely clean fossil fuels. the entire output is CO2 and H2O. I dont have
the stats in front of me, but I would think it uses up less energy than a 100 watt

coal is probably being burned and the coal pushes all kinds of pollutants into the
air including radioactivity. it isnt just the "bother" factor anymore, I really dont
want my mother getting West Nile. gardening is her life, it keeps her mobile and
involved. Ingrid
