I’m assuming this is somewhat counterproductive but I don’t know what I’m talking about when it comes to solar so someone who knows more than me can tell me if I’m being dumb.
Also notice the golf course right next to it, very good for the environment.
Solar is environmentally destructive
Nuke gang? Since it’s 2024 and not 1984, I think solar and wind might be the only sources of power our industrial civilization is able to build fast enough to decarbonize unfortunately.
Nah if we were serious we would build nukes and reduce consumption
One nuke plant generates as much power as 10 wind farms, 24/7. Renewables are also intermittent which means they cant displace combined cycle gas.
That’s not to say there’s no room for wind and solar in the grid, just that we couldn’t reliably power the grid this way. It’s much better than anything generating CO2, but we shouldn’t delude ourselves into thinking it’s better than banning bitcoin. It does come at a cost
yeah solar and wind are better suited for smaller scale things like streetlights and whatnot
