Renewables in my opinion are an incredible waste of time and resources
It makes me sad to see this conversation and the responses. Renewables in my opinion are an incredible waste of time and resources and will not solve dangerous climate change but make it inevitable. Most people do not live in their own houses or have the means to invest in renewables. This inane drive into renewables will prolong global poverty and prevent fossil fuels from being phased out. Take a look in the future lets say a hundred years from now, do you see the Space Ship Enterprise being powered by solar collectors? The key to human existence and prosperity is a very high density energy source. Only small nuclear reactors powered by Thorium or Uranium can resolve the climate and world poverty problem. All the energy used to launch the space shuttle can be generated with a few gram of Thorium or Uranium.
