And so the world keeps moving on. But the debate still has to continue about whether renewable energy is sustainable or we should go back to using gas but find a way to remove carbon from the atmosphere?
The problem with that is there is no sustainable way to do either of those things. Nuclear energy seems like a good alternative but most people don’t like to hear that word. There has to be a good marketing campaign behind nuclear energy to change people’s perspective about it. But if you think about it, there is no practical way to move the entire world to start using solar panels.
That is mainly because there are different weather patterns in different parts of the world. Sure, you can use them reliably in the middle of a desert. But when you move that energy from the desert to the cities, you will lose a lot of it. And there is added cost of transport to that.
