~~~ In spite of the efforts of the stupidest President we have even had the misfortune to have elected renewables are doing great, Renewable energy is ~~~ racing ahead and setting records that would have seemed implausible a decade ago.
In other words, Trump has never been against any form of energy, he just keeps green energy in its perspective as an alternative source to augment essential energy reserves we must have with green energy which is more expensive and less reliable instead of rushing pell mell into ditching coal and other basics like Europe and Biden tried until they fell flat on their faces and found it does not work.
Germany’s ‘Green’ Energy Failure: Germany turns back to coal and natural gas as millions of its solar panels are blanketed in snow and ice - London Daily
Energiewende is a German word for ‘”energy transition.” Energiewende is a policy launched by the German government in 2000 to decarbonize its primary energy supply.
So, LIE 1: Trump is anti-green energy. Trump merely intelligently asks that technologies PROVE themselves first as being better, cleaner, cheaper and more reliable before killing known, proven energy sources. Thank you.
LIE #2: Renewable energy: What is renewable about wind? It takes energy from the atmosphere that cannot be replaced. Once taken, it cannot be replaced, except with new wind. What is renewable about solar? Does it replenish photons in sunlight? Put hydrogen back in the Sun? It takes solar energy that otherwise would have warmed the earth or fed the plants and instead steals it for a silicon panel.
Meanwhile, "green" energy" is actually very dirty. Maybe clean in the final operation, but is actually very dirty in the manufacture of turbines and panels. Likewise, coal and NG are renewable as well; the Earth is in a continuous process of always making new coal and generating new NG, not to mention hydro power. Likewise, even nuclear is green and renewable. What we have here really are just a bunch of ass-clowns like Rocky trying to use semantics to promote a marketing agenda.
Fact is we will use coal and gas for as long as the "stupid" president says we need to do so because we NEED to. The day all this green technology becomes better, cheaper and cleaner, you won't need an edict from congress to put gas and coal away, the industry will do so all on its own.
