Would this solve the green house problem and the energy problem?
1. Built wind generator farms and solar panel systems where practical.
2. Built nuclear plants
3. Get people to put wind generators, solar panels or both on their houses were practical
4. Use the electrical power generated to make hydrogen.

Great Idea!
It would certainly help.

Wind generators and solar power are both difficult and expensive to produce, as well as completely unrealiable. The northern hemisphere would have no use for solar power except in summer, which is only 1/4 of the year.
Nuclear power is more realistic.
Hydrogen is also inefficient as a fuel or powersource.

That all would certainly help. The problem is cost for the average person, until the cost to implement these ideas comes down, it will not happen.

Yep. Put all of those contraptions in areas where the environmentalists are living. I'll bet they change their tune if someone wanted to stick a wind farm next to AlGore's house.

here is a better idea ! defeat the lib politicians and the eco nuts and drill for our own oil.the USA has more oil reserves than the middle east.we have the technology to do this safely without harming the environment or disturbing the hair on a caribou's a*s*s ! the estimated reserves are projected to last over 500 YEARS !forget windmills and all the gimmicky crap the politicians love.the only two worth pursuing are hydrogen and nuclear technology.screw the arabs,chavez and all the rest of them……..
