I'd say the risk is worth the carbon savings, but I'd also say that there are better options than nuclear energy

Yeah the real problem isn't environmentalists it's nimbys. A few years back the governator was trying to get a bunch of wind turbines online and a bunch of nimbys parading as environmentalists sued to stop the transmission line. I never heard if it ever was completed.
 
Wind power is an absolute no-brainer to me.


Sorry to this netflix thread btw.
 
My biggest, probably ignorant, issue with Solar, is that my house is used to obtain the energy, I give it to some company, who then sells it back to me. I have a problem with that. Now, where am I ignorant in my stance?

You don't have the right setup, or you are not producing much solar or wind on site. In the one house we had with solar and wind we had panels on the roof and vertical axis turbines in the backyard (3 of them). It produced enough energy that it generally cut our power bill in half or better and there were times when we sold power back to the power company and got a credit on our bill. Not much, but it was a little.

Pls start a thread on energy + the environment altogether.

Cheap Nat Gas is just a short term solution, IMO. Plus, methane still contributes to GHG emissions.


Agreed on the kicky remark. So much has changed in the past 10 years.

Another one? There are probably 50 already with no traction.
