    We could have had this if we kept investing in nuclear, which is the safest energy source we currently know, but instead we decided to kneecap ourselves. Germany is going back to coal after shutting down its nuclear plants.

    You’ll see, in 5 years time at most China will announce 99.9999% recycling on spent nuclear fuel, to the point the remaining 0.000001% is just dust you can safely scatter in the wind and we’ll still be debating whether we should put solar on roofs or not.

      China will be beaming near limitless power down to earth from orbital solar farms while the West turns it’s air into tar from trying to power the most inefficient AI imaginable with fossil fuel power plants.

      At some point, I feel like AES countries will have to go to war with the west just to try and prevent them from completely destroying what little is left of a breathable atmosphere.
