Don't shut your eyes...electrify your home and transportation. Advocate for more charging stations and the grid getting more green as time passes from fossil fuels to wind and solar and hydro and geothermal
But not nuclear cause we don't know where to store all those very radioactive rods and cooling water.
Green energy is NOT wasteful. Solar panels on ones roof have a longer live than a Nuclear power plant. Solar panels can last 50 years or more before needing replacing. We got 10 decommisioned nuclear power plants with another 20 going off line soon. These plants lasted about 40 years before being shut down because of safety issues. The nuclear spent rods are being stored on site cause no one knows where to store nucear waste that has a half life of thousands of years. No state wants to be the depository of our nuclear waste. The low radioactive cooling water waste is also being stored on site. Where to put it. The industry wants to dump it into our oceans. Millions of gallons of low radioactive compounds circulation into our oceans into our fish and than into us.
Off shore wind energy here off th coast of New England can produce green energy 24/7/12. Constant wind of about 8 to 15 mph of the NE coast.
Fossil fuel industry is heavily subsidized. In a 2022 report global fossil fuel subsidies doubled from the previous year to an all-time high of 1 trillion USD.
Nuclear is not clean as it produced tons of high and low levels of radioactive very harmful waste. It is not stable. Nothing stable about rdioactive isotopes. Wind is stable and constant off the NE shore. Solar is as stable as sunshine and the sun made us and will be doing so for houdreds of thousdands of years. Thermal is as stable as earths core. Hydro is stable in areas od the USA where rain fall is constant heavy.
Fossil fuels need to be shipped to sites for usage. Green is produced locally and used locally. Finally adressing the inpact of Fossil Fuels on our environment. Nigel where have you been the past few decades. CO2 emmisions caused by burning of fossil fuels is killing our planet. It the cause of your every increasing insurance costs, the price of the foods you buy, the health of the air we breath and the water we consume.
Sea rise is raising havic on every shore around the world.
We need to keep fossil fuels in the ground and go green Nigel. For us for our kids and for our kids kids. For all living life forms....we need to go green.
Wow тАж you have become so misinformed by the propaganda and are way out of date.. I feel sorry for you, and the only good news is that you are fast joining the minority, as many people are waking up to the reality of the climate emergency scam. Our new western governments once voted in will adjust the crazy policies going forward.
I will direct you to some material that I hope you will review but here is a summary..
First CO2 is not a pollutant and is now proven to not be a driver of climate change and we donтАЩt need CO2 and fossil fuel mitigation and we need to expand the use as long as we make Fossil fuels as clean as possible. Yes we will need some focused adaption to a naturally warming planet and this will definitely need the power of fossil fuels to undertake whatever adaption is needed.
Wind and solar is not a reliable solution for the main energy grid although it does have some off grid applications and certainly wont support industrial activity. Ask the Germans how they managed with W&S after spending almost all their wealth on it with no results and massive increases in energy costs. Plus W&S and EVs is far more harmful to the environment than the latest fossil technologies. The raw material extraction alone precludes W&S from being a viable wide scale energy source.
You need to get updated on the nuclear solution as its now being embraced by both western and emerging nations as a highly viable base load solution for a modern and much need reliable energy grid. Its being bad mouthed by so called environmental activists for no reason... more on this if you want..
Also you must realize that fossil fuels are needed for many other requirements outside of just electrical energy and without it we will have an economy more like the 1900s. You wont get the population to embrace that so just stop trying especially when is grossly unnecessary, irresponsible and foolish.
Further the emerging economies are forging ahead without the nonsense our policies are creating and they will get stronger and we in the west will get weaker due to our rank stupidity.
We cannot, and donтАЩt have to, afford such wasteful technologies as EVs, wind and solar. All of the proposed energy technologies outside of those derived from oil and gas just donтАЩt cut it in terms of output, reliability portability and cost unless significantly subsidized.
The comment about nuclear is way off the mark, as itтАЩs the cleanest, safest, and at the next-gen the least cost for static grid energyтАж itтАЩs the only technology that has the least impact on the environment with plenty of info to support that.
Then shut your eyes and Drill baby drill :-)
