A green power grid isn't based in reality with our current technology

And you're functionally retarded if you think so, ill be happy to debate anyone that thinks otherwise.

I'll go on to say it would cause much more environmental damage than clean coal, gas or nuclear.

Honestly, I'd like the ability to generate my own power/supplemental power if it was cost effective. I just don't want to be forced into it with no reliable alternative.

Nuclear emits zero carbon.

Do some research into green energy storage. Off hours power will be stored in hydrogen tanks, hydro generation ponds, or vanadium/lithium batteries. I've invested in the vanadium battery solution.

There’s no doubt the more America shifts to green technology the more we’ll rely on China for the rare earth materials to manufacture green technologies or EO Joe will buy our green technologies from China.

Green power not good enough to supply all of us with power. If the government wants to really make a difference they need to give rebates to people who have low electric bills , newer windows , upgraded attic insulation, newer AC units and solar panels. They need to step in and keep power companies from charging people with solar more then other consumers.

There is a force on our planet so powerful it moves the entire ocean twice a day. If anyone was serious about harnessing energy from the environment, tidal generators would be producing electricity around the globe. Their absence is all your need to know about the tree hugging lunatics.

BREAKING:

@ERCOT_ISO says most of the electric generating plants that went off-line last night were natural gas, coal or nuclear facilities that shut down.

Combined, that took more than 30,000 megawatts from the grid -- leading to the rotating outages.

Every family will be outfitted with an exercise bike hooked up to a generator. A family member will be legally required to be riding the bike at all times. Failure to do so will result in fines and imprisonment including hard labor at energy generation farms.

The gas is frozen too bro. Wells are shut in across the region. It appears storage withdrawal is inefficient. This weather is a case for coal or nuke, but nearly all power plants are fitted for natty or wind in Tx. They’re not going to spend $ to retrofit to coal over a rare event. If anything time will be spent on wellhead maintenance and turbine deicing.

Turn your heater off and put on a jacket old man. Who cares how many people die in the cold during winter storms or from the heat in the summer or in nursing homes in NY from COVID. We have to save the planet and nothing is more important than that. Dementia POTUS Joe and glass ceiling breaking VPOTUS Kamala know more than you do. Trust them and remember; only questions that have been submitted and approved beforehand are allowed!
