One of the problems with Solar and Wind is that at present and in the coming future (I have heard at least a decade) is that we can not generate enough power from them.
True - and we have a nimby problem as well when it comes to locating the collection points and transmitting the electricity.
I think a lot of Armageddon preachers (cultural not theological) have been beating the drums and not addressing the real issues.
And this is new how?
Where wind makes sense do wind. Where solar makes sense do solar. Do not make a round peg fit into a square hole. (Solar works much better down here than wind)
And where Nuclear makes sense do that, and where coal makes sense, do that.
But most of all we need to develop power generating methods that do not rely solely on oil.
Agreed. Using solar and nuclear to crack sea water for hydrogen has promise in the long run.
