Sounds like you have a problem with fossil fuels.
Can you expand on the fossil fuels comment?
Won't we run out of fossil fuels soon, making this a non issue?
Finite fossil fuels... which might not even be "environmentally cheaper" in the long run...
Itβs either get off fossil fuels or die.
Geez, you'd think there were no alternatives to continuing to burn fossil fuels or something ?
Another reason to get rid of fossil fuels ASAP.
as someone from eu - doesn't us now/under dems extract top amount of fossils from all the time? I mean it's not like it was good now. It looks like it'll get worse but the current path wasn't good either...
I think the world fossil fuel capitalists will have something to say about that unfortunately :/
The depletion of fossil fuels is not the problem. In fact, the opposite is true: we need to leave a very large proportion of present-day fossil fuel reserves in the ground if we're to avert catastrophic increases in global radiative forcing, and leading fossil fuel states don't particularly want to do that. Renewables, and potentially nuclear, can deliver all the energy we need if we are intelligent about it. Some things will be more expensive in the medium-term (producing extreme high
