There have been wars fought over energy resources, like oil & gas. If countries use alternative energy like wind & solar, they won't need to go to war to provide energy.
The wind & sun will not run out before humanity dies out. Useable uranium, coal, oil & gas probably will - which will force the price up a lot and cause huge problems. Look up 'Peak Oil' for example.
Fossil fuels release huge amounts of air pollution and cause huge environmental damage as you have to dig up millions of tons of the stuff. Forests are cleared, mountains have their tops blown off, rivers are polluted by waste etc.
Nuclear power creates waste and by collecting uranium together, you can help it be turned into nuclear bombs (both of these are overstated fears IMO).
Fossil fuels release far more CO2 than alternative energies. This causes the Earth to warm, and this could potentially be one of the most expensive and dangerous threats human civilisation has ever faced.

it is a reusable engery source. its green. solar is tax credit
downfall: its new so its still got bugs, and its expensive
we got our house redone and we wanted solar panels on the roof, but it cost 15,000 dollars and its only good for 10 years before you have to redo it. so we didn't do it. maybe in the future it will be cheaper

Some alternative energy sources are clean and don't send money to terrorist supporting countries. I'd rather spend more money here than spend less and have to worry about being bombed all the time.
