If you are saying we have to end all fossil fuels
I didn't say that.
and you are saying if we don't that the world will end in 12 years
Didn't say that either.
we don't have currently available replacement for fossil fuels, and there isn't one on the horizon now, that is even mythical close to being implemented in 12 years.
Agreed.
The only CO2-free replacement for fossil fuels is Nuclear power, which AOC laughably suggests we don't use.
Anybody that doesn't want to make nuclear part of the plan is naive.
Even if we did use Nuclear, it would take a heck of a lot longer than 12 years to replace all fossil fuel power plants with Nuclear ones. It would take years just to setup those projects, and decades to complete, even with unlimited government backing.
Yeah, probably.
I'd love to hear how this works.
How this works is AOC is a 29 year old populist that doesn't singularly represent the views and reasoning of everybody on the left wing. The left is not advocating for a ban on oil before we're ready for an actual transition. AOC is young, idealistic and apparently likes to exaggerate.
When alternative energy sources become economically feasible, the private market will shift to those energy sources without the need for any ban on fossil fuels.
Sweet Jesus, We pray that you will please spare us from having to hear over and over again from the Right about how we are trying to "ban fossil fuels'.....
