That’s a bad idea. Hydroelectric is the cleanest source of energy and is basically free once the damn is built.

But even if they're able to run the country at 50% renewables on a consistent basis or something it's a net positive for everybody and the environment.
The 2021 Texas Power Crisis should be giving you pause. Europe is in an energy crisis because its renewable energy solutions cannot keep up with demand, and there still is a natural gas shortage due to the Ukraine/Russian war.
And both wind and solar are improving and there will be more progress to come and the efficiencies will increase to be able to limit the use of coal/gas even more. That frees those things up for other areas where they will still be needed and lowering the price of all of it.
Mounting financial losses in the wind industry over the last few months are taking a toll on the Biden administration’s clean energy drive. Despite the billions in subsidies that came down the pipeline in 2022 before the Inflation Reduction gave away even more money,.

Because for most people the contextual clues were obvious. But I sometimes forget you exist and picking up on context isn't your strong suit.

You said exactly verbatim, “nobody had stated otherwise”. I pointed out that isn’t true. Why didn’t you state that you had never stated otherwise, and I wouldn’t have posted? I never said you had stated otherwise.

Nobody, meaning me or anyone from the articles I've posted.
How many times do you dislocate your shoulder reaching for things to put where they don't belong?

Originally posted by Shockm View PostThis statement isn’t true and examples have been documented above. Climate activists state many unrealistic goals on when this will happen. They also state things like the world will not be able to survive past 2030, if we don’t go completely carbon free by then. Lastly they want to force it to happen and they can care less how much it costs our economy.

470,000 Glass Bottles Turned into Coating for Slashing Heat - It Wins a 2023 James Dyson Award
In Hong Kong SAR, air-conditioning to drive away the muggy sub-tropical heat accounts for almost a third (31%) of total electricity consumption.
In this megalopolis of 7.4 million, two young engineers looked for a greener solution to cooling buildings, and won the admiration of legendary inventor Sir James Dyson.
Hoi Fung Ronaldo Chan and Can Jovial Xiao created E-COATING, an eco-friendly solution that solves two problems in one. It takes advantage of the 470,000 glass bottles that end up in landfills every day to create a reflective coating that reflects the sun’s rays.
Made from recycled waste glass, it can be applied to exterior roofs and walls, thereby tackling the problem of throwaway glass while also reducing the amount of electricity consumed on cooling solutions like air-conditioning.
“Based on my program calculation, you can save about 30% energy usage on air conditioning systems,” said Ronaldo.
“Ronaldo and Jovial have come up with a clever way to turn waste into something much more valuable,” said Sir James Dyson, Founder and Chief Engineer at Dyson, who co-awarded to two inventors the 2023 James Dyson Award for Sustainability.
Pretty cool that they can take something that's easily discarded by many and turn it into something that can help save energy use and money.
