Its only a pipe dream if it doesn't work. Its all lies and exaggeration if a technology if it does not. For decades, people all over the world have worked on energy systems to replace the "dirty" sources that we have trouble with, regarding air and water contamination. Many progressive billionaires and their kept politicians have promoted solar, but it cannot yet power a single city on Earth. I am not saying this is impossible, but the means of affordably making and storing electricity, is not enough to power, say, even one quarter of Auckland, for example. There are always articles on technical improvements, and I totally support all R&D, but if we cannot supply large cities with electricity on a 7 x 24 x 365 basis, and until solar can, its a crock. The problem is the progressives world wide, as an ideology, want solar to be the source-whether it supplies power of not. This, is a totalitarian quality, and as such, is civilizational threatening.
Let's review that: Since solar power (doesn't that include hydroelectric?) can't provide 24/7/365 power to a major city - it's worthless and we should just keep subsidizing the fossil fuel industry (including using the military as necessary) while they endanger the future of civilization; because actually trying to provide sustainable energy is an evil plot by unnamed progressive billionaires.
