I purposely didn’t get political because then it turns in a cascade of other things and ad hominem attacks. It took hundreds of millions of years to store all of that carbon, unleashing it in a century is an extremely abnormal event.
Talking about how this continent used to be here or this used to be an ocean is disingenuous to the fact that those changes took place over a much greater period of time.
I’m not here to argue about electric cars or whatever else because I lack the expertise to do so. But why is everyone so protective over the use of fossil fuels? It’s a stupid, stupid way to power things. It’s inefficient, dirty, and requires drastic changes to how our earth functions. Surely we can come up with a better way then lighting a constant fire to move our cars? I highly doubt we would engineer the internal combustion engine today. We haven’t moved on very far from whale oil in the aggregate of tech.
Dammit man, quit giving in and argue your point.....
You are intelligent and well spoken. This is how lively debates are brother. No one will hate you because you stand your ground, regardless of whether we agree or not. Thats the fun of this shit, we all have different views from some level or another.
I don’t know the answer to that either. I don’t believe they’ve built one in America in something like five decades. I know the one very close to me is currently in the process of being decommissioned. Only two things that come to mind would be fossil fuel companies not wanting the free competition or their location (at least near me) of them being directly on the ocean and being subjected to natural disaster I wonder if we put some resources into it we could create more self contained systems that didn’t require ocean water to exist. Definitely something I wouldn’t mind seeing explored.
Also who is trying to move the economy towards clean energy? Have you seen the subsidies we pay fossil fuel companies?
Tesla has some great engineering I wish people would stop focus on Elon Musk’s “brilliance” though not only did he not found the company if you look into it he wasn’t even an investor/employee/engineer until they had designed their original model. Money and lawyers and now a second round employeeLook into Teslas' idea's...He supposedly had the energy problem solved...See what u think...
