Dreams

The shine is coming off the Green bubble, as people begin to understand the mining, processing and disposing of the materials needed for green energy and the resulting harm to the environment that comes along with wind and solar. The recent rise in capital cost (higher interest rates) is another set back to wind and solar. Fossil fuels power plants have lower up front cost as long term the bigger problem is fuel cost whereas wind and solar have most of the cost up front. The real damage to the climate is the time wasted before it become apparent that nuclear energy is the answer. Meanwhile the world goes merrily along its way dreaming of windmills and solar panels.
