Fifteen years ago we would never have dreamed that renewables would work so well. Fifteen years ago we would not have known what to spend the money on instead. Now we do and more renewables make much more sense.
Can you honestly tell me, in your heart of hearts, that you truly think by 2039 the US will be supermajority solar and wind power and that the nuclear power plants coming online won’t be useful to displace the remaining coal plants?
Of course they’ll be useful. Because the money spent on them was not spent on renewables. Renewables would be a bigger, better, and quicker return on investment.
Well, realistically, what we’re doing now is much closer to what you want than to what I want, so I earnestly hope you’re right, and I don’t have to say I told you so.
