I was wrong! I've corrected the numbers and now where will we get $2.1 Trillion to $550 Trillion to fulfill Biden's "Guarantee"!

It was 84,000...now it is 8,150. Somehow we've disposed of needing 75,000 or so new power plants in the last 24 hours. Technology is moving fast let me tell you.

Just wait, his numbers will change again. They always do as he gets corrected. A lot.

 

[healthmyths]

He's guaranteeing it in the sense he sees where we'll be in the 30 years. He'll be out of office anytime between now and January, 2029. He clearly can't guarantee it will certainly happen.

And for some reason [cough, cough], you keep posting that edited video; which you KNOW is edited. Cutting out the part where he says renewable energy will replace fossil fuels by 2050. Yet you keep posting it anyway.

Pretty simple. EXACT words of Biden...

He has no grasp on logic.
92 current reactors produce almost 20% of our current electricity.
Fewer than 500 should be enough for all our current electrical needs.
He said, on another error filled OP, that we'd need 113% more power
for all the electric cars and trucks to replace ICE cars and trucks.

Call it 565 on top of 500. Fewer than 1100 total.

Off by a factor of 75.

He's done worse.

Biden: ...... "But kiddo, I want you to just take a look, ok? You don't have to agree, but I want to look at my eyes. I guarantee you, I guarantee you, we're going to end fossil fuels and I'm not going to cooperate, ok? No, it can't be done by 2030. Before 2050, G-d willing. No, there's not one single person who's argued it could be done by then. But it can be done by 2050. It may be 2045, but as the science increases, we may be able to move more quickly. But we have to. We can fundamentally change things in the next 10 years though so that we set a path. I promise you. I promise you. Ok?​

“No president has ever done what I’ve done,” says Trump. Trump claims he did a better job that any previous president in history. yet he lost re-election and could not stand the humiliation. If that is not embellishment then it certainly is chest beating. His handling of COVID -19 stands as his legacy as the gift that keeps on giving.

He might have survived that but the election drama will forever define him. That is saying a lot considering the rest of the story.

Well he did establish the Space force. Gee what is NASA going to do now.

"But, but, but, TRUMP!"

 

[Kilroy2]

But he is running for president! so he remains a valid topic. Just as Biden is a valid topic.

[leftwinger]

He is on to something.

• 58,101,100,200 kWh for cars
• 467,685,949,987 kWh for trucks. (his numbers from above)

Comment:

He is after ADDITONAL KWH required to charge more EV. He has found ~500TW (continuous power) needed for new EV? I am taking off the hours. If you have X amount of energy and it is consumed over an hour......you still have that X energy available the next hour.

• 58TW for cars
• 468TW for trucks.

~526TWH (note: TERA is 10e+12)************Billion - KW is 10e+09 x 10E+03 = 10e+12 (TERA)

EXAMPLE: Need new power plants capable of putting out 550TW = 550E+12 continuous power. (550 to give overhead)
TOTAL power available now = 4,243TW = 4243x10E+12

Bottom Line: Power generation would need to increase 550TW/4243TW or ~13%.
Therefore, If it took 100 PWR plants to get 4243...you would need 113 total PWR plants to increase 13%?
Additional 13 more PWR plants required in the example. Or increase 13% more power from existing sites.
I think that is right? quick look at it.

Then why is it required for the usual suspects to jump into every thread talking about him with "But TRUMP!, but TRAUMP!"?

The issue is he “guarantees to rid fossil fuels whether now or 2050! Which is totally stupid! He guarantees to destroy an industry. What will replace the 300 million barrels used to make 2 billion tires? Or replace 95% of asphalt used to drive on roads?

And remember 60% of the 4.2 Trillion kWh electricity is generated in USA from what Biden guarantees to rid.."fossil Fuels"!

Well lets look at the other uses. Fossil fuel is used to make plastic. Plastic is not recyclable. thus you have this

This doesn't even address what is dumped in the ocean. There is a problem with plastic waste that comes from using fossil fuel to make plastic.

Tires - well they had the same problem with used tire waste in the past. US generated estimated 304 million tires as waste. Granted now they can recycle tires into asphalt and even mulch. Yet they cannot keep up with tire waste

around 1 billion used tires are generated, yet only about 100 million tires are recycled, according to Goldstein Research, meaning the industry still has considerable room for growth. Its growing.

It appears that the tire waste recycling is alive and man is finding new ways to tackle Tire waste.
