Is green tech a meme?

it's not a meme but i've seen people use it only to launder money. i know some people who have set up water powered turbines and they generate enough electricity to power a small house.

Well, in Norway we get 80% of our power from water powered turbines, so it's clearly not a meme.

These. Nuclear is the future.

Water isn't viable everywhere though.

based Norwat

It clearly IS a meme. Norway is in awful shape. It's overrun with looting (use of social safety nets) and terrorism (liberal media). How can you call that a country?

It would be more based if we made Thorium reactors instead of selling everything we dig up to other nations. But politicians are too much cowards, and environmentalists are too stupid to realise the benefit.

>Solar power is just glorified gas power plants
I thought solar power plants that are based on reflecting the sun functioned like steam power plants, not gas.

Governments should start funneling money, not into studies of brand new nuclear tech, but how to update and integrate the nuke tech we already have. A lot of it is pretty good shit that has never been tried out in an actual power plant. We don't need newer nuclear power technology, we just need newer power plants.

Also, can we please give muh thorium meme a chance? Please? We could even use an inefficient fusor as the neutron source so if the plant loses power, the fusor dies and the chain reaction stops.

true. that's a huge drawback for green energy since the same method of generating electricity can't be used everywhere.

It's almost impossible to build a new hydro-electric dam here in the US though due to the "horrible environmental impact" they have.
