    because you wanna be combative, I’ll be the same.

    what are we supposed to do when it’s not sunny, or if we live in parts of the world that don’t see much/any sun, and it’s not windy. batteries? you already know we aren’t at a point that is viable yet, we’ll get there, not today. what are we supposed to do when the entire plant scales up the demand for solar panels to replace the lack of nuclear, and suddenly there isn’t enough scale to fulfil that demand and prices skyrocket.

    I want a future of energy stability that is able to handle a changing climate, and changing political climates. I want a world where people have endless, cheap, free, low carbon cost energy without it being the plaything of whoever is a political leader this week. a combination of nuclear, solar, wind and anything else we can throw in there does that.

    going all in on just two that have similar problems, does not.
