According to a report from Renewable Energy World, Americans are not only using more renewable energy resources, but using less energy overall.  The article cites three main factors for these trends; overall lower electricity demand, a fuel shift to natural gas, and increased wind power production.  As this shift continues, more energy may be obtained from the entire portfolio of renewable resources, including solar, geothermal, and biogas from anaerobic digestion.   The more energy America can produce from sources other than coal, the better.
