Also the ground is white

And fuck those that do.

Geothermal is not viable in many places such as earthquake prone areas and also the east coast where the mantle has cooled significantly compared to the west coast which still has a hot, fresh plate in comparison. There are not too many viable places in the US for large scale geothermal power. Utah is in the sweet spot of a fresh plate in the west but far from major fault lines

Again, your hostility to Nuclear is completely misguided. Even the UN admits that Nuclear is needed to solve climate change https://news.un.org/en/interview/2024/06/1151006

China is building dozens of new Nuclear reactors while being the capital of solar panel manufacturing. There is no teeth kicking necessary. Nuclear kicks teeth out of everything in terms of reliability. Solar kicks teeth on speed and cost. Don't be a propaganda machine

Reminds me of this comic. Seeing it first hand with people like you

Perovskite uses rare earth metals too, so while they increase efficiency they are just as destructive

You can fit all the nuclear waste jn the world in one football field. It's not alot.

Both. There aren't enough rare earth materials to build enough solar panels to completely erase power plants. Panels have a devastating mining issue similar to batteries as well. Solar has lots of hidden costs no one talks about. It's cheap just like batteries but the opportunity cost is huge. Nuclear meanwhile has a high upfront cost which is the real reason it scares away investors. Also political anti nuclear nutters don't help with financing issues.

It's not either or situation, I hate this logic. Build both renewable and nuclear when the sun don't shine. Nuclear has far more stability than renewables

He's going to get a whipping by Musk.

You sound like a boomer haha 😄

Because that's what Republican voters want and that's enough for them. They vote on spite and hate and the GOP feeds them it

Still do it, just don't base your entire platform on it. It's not that hard to understand but most democrat politicians can't
