You need to power all civilization, once the leaders shut down all the
dirty power. What can we replace it with. What do we have we have ready to
go. The leaders all global Warming, so what can we do? They say its
imminent.
Who are these "leaders" you seem so worked up about? Is it the secret
illuminati council of thirteen. who are these sinister "leaders" who believe
global warming is imminent?
Do you realize how off the wall you sound?

It does. You cannot fake electricity. You cannot fake electric current. If
you are depending on solar power for 20% of your electricity supply, and the

on solar for a slim fraction of electricity. You haven't solved the problem
in a technical manner, all one is doing is employing solar for a fraction of
total electricity consumption, to make ones self "feel" better. This is not
engineering, it is ideology- a faith movement to make one "feel" better,
without providing clean power to power one's civilization. How long must we
wait for miracle power sources, if the shadow of Climate Change is
overwhelming us all? It is politics and not health, and not engineering that
is driving this issue, right?
I don't see what you're saying here. Indeed, you appear to be contradicting
yourself. If solar provides 20% of your power, it provides 20% of your
power. There is nothing faith based about that, assuming it's a fact (e.g.
about 70% of New Zealand's power is provided by hydro, on average - that's
not faith, or a miracle, or a conspiracy, it's just a fact).
If solar can provide X% of your power, on average, then that means only
100-X% has to rely on fossil fuels. Hence you can reduce your fossil fuel
usage by that amount, and provide that much more of a distance between
civilisation and any future effects of pollution, climate change, and
resource depletion.
Sorry, what don't you understand here?
