I wonder if any (and I literally mean "any") Trumpsters have had it dawn on them that this spectacularly stupid episode in the Middle East would have even occurred if we were further down the road on clean, renewable energies. Not dependent on oil.
See, clean renewable energy is not just about energy generation or "global warming". It's about economics. It's about national security. It's about protecting our way of life. AS WE ARE SEEING, RIGHT NOW.
The response/excuse I've seen is that it's too expensive and too far away. But that just demonstrates that these people are not keeping up with -- wait for it -- science. We are making BIG strides in both energy generation and energy storage, being driven largely by the energy-hungry AI buildout. And yes, part of this could include nuclear, and small-scale companies like OKLO are leading the way in creating devices for individual companies.
Imagine if we had made this a higher priority all this time. Imagine if we had gathered all the best minds and companies from around the globe to work on this together. Imagine if people were not staying in the way because it conflicts with their shallow partisan political worldview. The world might not give two craps about the Strait of Hormuz.
We're very close now. It's about economics and national security. Are we going to learn anything from this stupid war, or not?
Around 90% of renewables cheaper than fossil fuels worldwide
