is it true that in reality we can only build renewables OR nuclear? i feel like that's not reality.
I'm reality, the world is burning and both techs will mitigate. instead of resisting nuclear, renewable advocates ought to go after fossil fuel subsidies
the explosion thing doesn't really seem like a problem because of our relationship with gasoline and lithium batteries. maybe there could be a hydrogen future after all :)
Why would I do that? You've made it clear that you don't read people's comments. Instead of reading and responding, you copy paste from thead to thread the same disjointed bullet points.
omg who are you even talking to? It seems like your copy-pasting responses without reading who you're talking to. You're coming off a little looney which is unfortunate because it makes what your talking about sound looney too.
I won't fight against anything that helps the climate, even if it's expensive. It's unfortunate that anyone would. Do you really think when our grandchildren inherit the land, they'll be proud that their ancestors saved money when caring for the atmosphere?
This isn't about being right or wrong, or arguing about stupid things with a loon from the internet. It's about the atmosphere, don't forget that.
For real though, you've got a lot of energy on this. That's great. Use it to go after fossil fuels, they're the ones damaging the climate. Costs are indeed a concern with expanding nuclear but money's not a problem. Emissions are. If we need more we'll just print more like we always do.
Split water molecules using electricity. This requires generating a ton of electricity using a traditional power plant. You’re better off just making the electricity and skipping the hydrogen step.
I'm not an expert, but I know poeple on Reddit say that storage is a drawback of renewables. Could energy be stored as hydrogen?
Lol, what am I wrong about? Nuclear is a a carbon free techonolgy that we have that can prodce the energy we need? Germany dumped nuclear to go full renewable and it flopped? France exports a ton energy to Europe? What did I say that was wrong?
I think your brain is full of ideas that came from somewhere else.
If renewables are the answer, why does germany still rely on lignite? If it was figured out, wouldn't they be exporters of carbon free energy to Europe? (France is!) Instead of resisting nuclear, renewable advocates ought to go after fossil fuel subsidies. Fighting nuclear gives lignite "the green light."
A battery of tests were performed on the economics of mitigating the impending climate disater. These tests indicated that nuclear is a huge waste of money (p<0.05) (Blake, 2023)
and here i am praising a renewable project! maybe you're wrong in assuming im pro "nuclear over renewables?"
i can see a future with every tech that can help mitigate climate change
