> Fill the dry sunny areas with solar and batteries. Fill the windy areas with wind turbines and treat anyone opposing this with the same contempt as people vandalizing paintings "for the climate" The environmental impact of solar and wind turbines is huge, much greater than coal or nuclear. (By "environmental impact" I mean "natural habitat destruction", not "my property values went down because the air is icky".) | ||||||||||||||

> The environmental impact of solar and wind turbines is huge, much greater than coal or nuclear. See, this is the kind of BS boomers come up with to justify the current idiocy and that other boomers will eat hook, line and sinker without any critical thought Pray what kind of "environmental destruction" putting solar panels in the desert will cause that shadows actually digging the soil for coal? The fact that a coal plant emits more radiation than a nuclear plant should be sufficient to establish how much of a BS this fact it But I know, some people think training AI in space is cheaper, some will believe anything they're paid enough to believe (I obviously am in favour of nuclear plants and your statement might be correct in part there) | ||||||||||||||
