“my” title was the title of the newspaper article (by the Guardian who run a climate crisis section) based on a paper from AUSTRALIAN CENTRE for ADVANCED PHOTOVOLTAICS who are a proper research institute working on creating and improve solar power. This isn’t people trying to do down solar power it’s people who actually work in the field doing serious research. No one benefits from overselling renewables as perfect, all that’s going to lead to is a backlash down the line. I had hoped that this community would be more open to discussion and a bit less culty and filled with toxic positivity as the climate subreddits, I’m sad to see it isn’t the case.
No one benefits from overselling renewables as perfect
That’s a Straw-Man fallacy. No one’s saying it’s perfect. It just doesn’t matter that it isn’t perfect. What matters is that it’s one of the few net-positive energy sources in a world full of polluting alternatives. We don’t need people pushing the ignorant voters away from renewables- “i HeArD sOlAr MaKeS tOo MuCh TrAsH sO i’M vOtInG rEpUbLiCaN.”
