    Again, I’m arguing we do both. And anyway this is a volume question, not a construction time one (enough renewables fast enough) - I’m OK with waiting 20 years for new nuclear plants if in 20 years we get a fuckton of them.

      You need lunch and you can choose between a nutritious and tasty $5 sandwich from an independent deli or a $10 expensive mass-produced sandwich from a chain. The independent deli is tastier, cheaper, and healthier, and it’s easier for you to get since it’s on your way to work.

      Or you could just get both for no good reason if you want I guess.

      Hey, this you?

      It’s not clear that we can build enough renewables fast enough

      this is a volume question, not a construction time one (enough renewables fast enough)

      Woah! What happened to those goalposts? I could have sworn they were here a second ago.

      I’m gonna wait for your response to my other question to properly address this one since they’re so intrinsically linked.
