[QUOTE="wjschmaltz, post: 318593, member: 6150"] Nope. It’s causing a hard double down. One of the lead headlines on Bloomberg this morning was “Texas Shows What Happens When you Ignore Climate Change.” AOC is going off on how this is what happens when you don’t support a green new deal. I don’t trust the party that saw Hillary as a pillar of integrity to have any self reflection on what is happening. It will be seen as an opportunity to incentivize more renewable infrastructure. Renewable energy is feasible with enough infrastructure once they resolve the main weak spot - energy storage. It’s a legit and very feasible 50-year plan as we advance technology, the problem is that politics has convinced people the time is now. Joe Rogan released a really good podcast last week with Elon Musk. I actually find Elon to be very level headed and he’s someone that seems actually increasingly conservative in his views (he tweeted “take the red pill” earlier this summer after moving Tesla because of California’s covid and tax BS). He stresses the importance of keeping fossil fuels around and that people have to realize it’s a 30-50 year transition to renewable energy. It’s part of why he put up a personal reward to whoever can create the best carbon capture/recycling system. He also goes into energy storage and how feasible it will be for us to access the necessary amount of materials. I don’t agree with everything he has to say, but he seems to be one of the most objective thinkers in the renewable space - mainly because he legit wants what is best for the environment and mankind. His talk about the semis they’re creating at Tesla and how the drive systems will eliminate jack-knifing was pretty cool too. [/QUOTE]
