All academic schemes to replace FFs with mostly solar/wind share 3 absurd assumptions: 1) schemes never tried anywhere will cheaply work everywhere the 1st time 2) a crash program of unprecedented mining will be cheap 3) today’s anti-development politics won’t slow anything down — PolitiTweet.org

Unfortunately, there are opportunistic anti-fossil-fuel activist academics who have been feeding the absurd fantasy of rapid global replacement of FFs via unreliable solar and wind. These academics are squarely responsible for today’s global crisis of insufficient FF supply. — PolitiTweet.org

Bottom line: If we recognize the undeniable facts about energy, we must conclude that if 8B people are going to have the cost-effective energy they need to flourish, in the far greater quantities needed, fossil fuel use needs to increase. Rapidly restricting it is deadly, period. — PolitiTweet.org
