Where did you get these ridiculous ideas? We just need more renewable power and storage. Then we replace every use of fossil fuels with electricity. 90% of the solution is not hard, it's just expensive.


After factoring in the entire supply-chain (mining, manufacturing, maintenance, yield, reliability, waste management), renewables barely make a dent.

Drastic reductions need drastic measures. It is time we reconcile with the fact that modern living does not compute with our objectives of carbon emission.


That is factually wrong.
