| Not great for the wildlife during drilling but it's better than the carbon rich alternatives. |

| Global warming is also killing wildlife. And by many magnitudes more than drilling some holes for offshore wind parks. |

| ▲ | virgildotcodes 2 hours ago | parent | next [-] | | Is the game you're playing "see if I can be subtle enough to get away with undermining renewables through misleading statements on social media without people calling me out on it"? If so I think you're down 1 - 0 so far in this thread. Best of luck on the next round though, really cool and awesome game! | | |
| ▲ | constantius 35 minutes ago | parent | next [-] | | I think it was your reading that is faulty, the commenter wasn't subtle and didn't undermine anything. Can you stop playing the game of owning people with teenager level zingers based on you yourself being too thick? | |
| ▲ | carlosjobim 37 minutes ago | parent | prev | next [-] | | Thank you comrade for your alert senses! You correctly identified that anybody who pretends to be a "moderate" voice or utters any kind of even light criticism towards the Party program is always a detractor or enemy spy which is trying to sabotage and undermine our internal cohesion. The individual has promptly been dealt with and put in a reeducation camp. I will talk to your local commissar so that your brave act of psychological self defence in this message board is rewarded with +50 extra social credits. | |

| ▲ | _joel 2 hours ago | parent | prev [-] | | Get a grip, where did I undermine renewables, I said it was better than the carbon rich alternative. I see you're playing the, "let's be misleading and pretend the OP was saying something they weren't". Fun game, not that productive though. |

| It is really great for the wildlife after the drilling is done though, as the windmills tend to make the area safer against fishermen. |

| Nothing is great for wildlife, including leaving it alone and undisturbed, because nature doesn't care if animals are happy, or even if they exist. |

| ▲ | josh-wrale 2 hours ago | parent [-] | | I’m thinking you mean that nature does not possess the ability to care at all. | | |
| ▲ | neuronic an hour ago | parent [-] | | Nature does have the ability to care unless you postulate that humans aren’t part of nature. |

| No energy source producing the required amounts to run civilization will be non-disruptive to wildlife and the environment. But perfect is the enemy of good. Renewable energy sources heavily reduce this factor, make countries more independent from imports (other countries) and slow down the catastrophic effects of increased atmospheric energy due to greenhouse effect of carbon-based energy sources. Conservatives should be the top number one supporters of renewable energy because of more independence from other governments and better conservation of the environment. But alas, the only thing they like to preserve is their personal greed. |
