Why can't we use renewable energy even if they're wrong? Why? Why not take preventative measures? Why not, JUST IN CASE? You have car insurance, but you're not PLANNING to be in an accident. Why can't we do that?

Expensive, would continue to be a running expense forever.
Also, creating solar panels is more damaging to the environment than nuclear energy. Rare earth metal mines are highly toxic, and china dumps the waste products into the sea.
Wind is so inefficient that it costs more money than it will ever make on an infinite timescale.
There is no "renewable" energy. So long as you greedy fuck continue to suckle on the teat of electricity in your selfish desire for technological """progress""", we will continue to be doomed.
>Expensive, would continue to be a running expense forever.
It needs to be subsidized heavily. We need to divert current fossil fuels being squandered to propel giant trucks and boats back and forth into dams and geothermal plants while increasing efficiency in transmission. THis isnt economically viable, but why is 700 billion a year to subsidize military contractors? Unfortunately we are in a tragedy of the commons scenario where the world is racing to use as much fossil fuels as they can before anyone else gets them and future generations will have to deal with a more difficult planet to live on because of it. Selfishness is the great filter.
If you pay to put solar panels on my roof, I’ll gladly use them. I’m not gonna pay for that inefficient shit tho
dude just shut down the economy lmao
>muh signed by 250 "climate" scientists
Appeal to authority AND a bandwagon argument fallacy, would you look at that.
First definie "climate scientist," give me the percentage of "climate scientists" that signed this relative to all "climate scientists," thirdly show me irrefutable or even reasonable proof that they all agree on that this isn't bullshit and fourthly, kys op and stop sucking Jow Forumsscience's cock you fag
Because solar panels are dirty as hell to produce, wind power is a health hazard and because both are too inconsistent for main dependency in the power grid.
No, magic battery tech won't solve the problem of inconsistency. You're wasting power to make an inefficient system work.
Now liquid salt thorium reactors on the other hand are cleaner than your ass, safer for the environment than solar panel production, don't require meme batteries and run cool enough and reliably enough to allow use of one without a giant cooling tower on top of it.
Can't even make weapons with it.
But mostly we can't do renewables because Israel relies on oil pipelines to control the middle east.
The whole 97% of scientists meme is based on a single inquiry of a couple thousand people of whom all but 50 were rejected and only 47 declared they believed in inevitable man-made climate change.
The counter-declaration has been signed by over 30.000 qualified scientists.
>5-9 degrees rise
>kills all life permanently
Seriously what the fuck is wrong with the niggers who write this shit, can't they remember how Earth looked like 4 billion years ago when it was a flaming ball of molten magma yet he were are all fine.
>Implying that could kill the shitskins.
The left cannot meme.
>hey Patel, sign off on this study or we lose our funding
>Ok meester Smith borka borka
>TWO BILLION SCIENTISTS SAY THING! WE ALL GON DIE!
Dayly reminder to stay fit in case of serious trouble that is coming soon.
Go jogging, take fighting lessons and train how to shoot anons
they meant all Africans would be gone permanently
>future generations
>the world will be a burnt crust by 2050
lol what
>but you're not PLANNING to be in an accident.
Sez yoo.
>okay goys I know we've been saying the world is going to end really soon because of global cooling, whoops I mean global warming, whoops I mean global climate change for decades, but we are totally serious this time
>give us control of the entire civilized world, it's for your own good!
>if you don't give us all the money and power and control, the climate will become enraged and totally destroy everything!
you have to admit, (((they))) have got some serious balls
If you build and invest in modern nuclear power, who will give money to jews and muslims to destroy the west?
Chinks, poos and niggers will create more pollution faster than anyone putting up meme panels or windmills. Nothing against degradable and recycleable packaging though. Fusion and thorium reactors are the only salvation at this point.
>250 people who would go from making bank to being unemployed with no useful skills if a thing were untrue have signed a paper saying that thing is true
>quick! form a world government and seize all the wealth from everybody to give to the people who signed this paper because they say so!
Nothing wrong with renewable energy. Nothing will replace hydrocarbons as a fuel, ever.
Weird that man has been using renewable energy since forever. Except niggers, I don't think they invented fire yet.
Because you stupid shits are too afraid of the of the nuclear holocaust boogieman to invest in the one type of alternative that could feasibly replace fossil fuels for electricity
because it's april and I'm still shovelling snow.
Uh, we do already, user. Americans voluntarily choose renewable energy more than any other group in the world when the option is available from their local utility.
Too much money for too little of a pay out. I have car insurance because I know the amount I pay will be enough to replace the car I had. Green energy is no where near able to replace coal and fossil fuels. Pumping more and more money into it isn't going to solve a damn thing. If you want to look at viable replacements let's talk nuclear. Because I'm 100% behind that
You understand that, just one example of many, making an electric car is demonstrably worse for the environment than producing and then using a traditional car for decades? And tax dollars go into subsidizing that shit both directly and in the form of colleges setting up charging stations for like two kids from rich families who have them and then taxdollars pay for all the power they use to charge them? You unironically support robbing people to give free shit to the wealthy "to save the environment" when it's worse before even turning one of those fucking things on for the first time than any claim about combustion engine harm (which is unproven anyway) could be over the course of decades. And on top of that the power used to charge those fucking things is almost always generated (less efficiently than just running a gas engine because it's being translated tons of ways) by burning coal or some shit.
Then you get into subsidizing extremely expensive solar/wind/hydroelectric shit and THAT'S always a scam because electric companies just pass the cost onto consumers, generate fuck all power from it anyway, and then the consumers pay AGAIN to make up the extra cost for their power when the government gives that money to the power company. It's all a huge fucking scam that ultimately does the opposite of it's claimed purpose.
We can and it's developing, what people are against is paying middlemen more tax money, that will never ever be reduced. The whole Paris accord? Huge waste and just virtue signalling as an example. Forcing stuff is a waste and every report, even ones that are pro "carbon taxes" etc show how expensive it is over newer gas turbine designs. Also for some reason these people hate nuclear. Maybe their knowledge ends at the Simpson's?
>9 degree increase in temperature would permanently kill all life on Earth.
I'm all for starting to get off of fossil fuels, but this shit is so fucking retarded. How low does your IQ have to be to think all life would die because of a slight increase in temperature? Would it cause issues? Of course, but it wouldn't even wipe out humanity, let alone "all life."
You'll pay for it when shekelberg's politician buddy makes it the law and you'll lose your house and/or wind up in prison if you don't buy and install "approved" solar systems on your property, the only approved panels just happening to be made by shekelberg enterprises. Oh and you also have to forfeit any energy produced and allow shekelberg energy solutions ltd to sell it for profit with no reimbursement. And you're not allowed to collect rainwater, you have to wait for it to fall and be run through shekelberg water inc pipes at whatever cost they set for you. Oh you wanna do some home improvement? No, you can't get a permit until a shekelberg home improvement solutions contractor comes out and you select a properly qualified team from shekelberg construction llc to do it for you. The material, of course, has to be up to code and only shekelberg lumber co has the proper certification to provide that.
It's just the price you pay to live in the land of the free user.
Go ahead and do what you like. But why should other people be forced to do what you want?
I'd rather everyone die.
>OH MAN WHAT WILL WE DO IF IT GETS 5-6c WARMER?
What is this literal overreaction-bogeyman garbage?
Why can't lefites meme without a wall of text? Nobody wants to read that shit.
>we all die
truly equality at its finest
yeah but the rothschilds want the world to turn into a shit hole so they can take it over.
>The un made a resolution
>Hard pill to swallow
Man you got me
Global warming is an easily solved problem. technologyreview.com
I feel bad for young people driven to hysteria from global warming crap. But eco terrorists would be funny happenings so I approve in the end.
I can’t hear you - I died when peak oil happened in 2005, having been repeatedly raped in a post-apocalyptic horror show of tribal mad-max style violence. But I’ll pray for you guys.

>shut down economy
>rebuild it in 5-10 years
So how to we rebuild it if the mechanism for any wide scale action is shut down?
That's like saying if we burn our house down now, we can build a new one next July and never mind that it's November and snow is falling.
Many of the research papers on global warming are inherently flawed. Al Gores paper didn't include the oceans or any body of water and how they would affect the earths climate. Which is retarded because its responsible for retaining as much of 80% of the heat in some areas. Secondly, Their is a clean energy source that is available and efficient but no one will use. Nuclear energy is an environmentalists wet dream but they don't seem to know anything about it or outright say its worse then fossil fuels. You should really research the benefits of nuclear power, especially since there are new innovations in the field coming around, things like thorium reactors are very interesting because they can solve many of the issues a conventional nuclear reactor faces
Those scientists are paid shills. Prove me wrong.
>within the last week
date your image too.
Based
The hardest to swallow pill is that politics and race are irrelevant in the longrun and that a culling of humanity is required to avert the "Era of Humans".
The only thing your ideology and racism is designed for is to decide who gets culled.
Go green, but keep those fucking guns.
You people are so fucking stupid. Not only have climate scientists dropped the ball for the last 60 years on their predictions, there is an extinction level event coming in our future. If the engines of production don't get us off this planet we are screwed and can only pray God has enough mercy to spare a few survivors again.
