Look, the wages you withheld from the workmen who mowed your fields are crying out against you. The cries of the harvesters have reached the ears of the Lord of Hosts. You have lived on earth in luxury and self-indulgence. You have fattened yourselves for slaughter.
The irony is that due to climate-policies pressure that gas has to become unbearably expensive for the consumers. Long term locked into a terrible deal by all means, what could possibly go wrong?Originally Posted by Liare
Nord Stream 2 was a huge mistake, not because of dumb "ROOOYYYIIISSSAAAA" shit, but because the easy access to natural gas it provides has basically locked in dependence on that for the foreseeable future.

Traitors like Jane Fonda, Prince Charles and others who fund anti humanity terrorist groups like Greenpeace and WWF. All of them cultural Marxists of one or other kind!
If you think that a single cent of good patriotic hardworking USA coal companies was spent funding those commie terrorists you are sheeple deluded by (((them)))
Just to note, I'm being a little bit sarcastic
Since ether scientific or fiction or non fiction publishing on global warming has become very depressing.

Anyone sensible? Seriously dont talk shit about something you know very little about. Nuclear is the ultimate example of wasteful corrupt crony capitalism. It's everything you hate.
But what do I know, I've just literally negotiated major legal documents involving Hinkley Point C and played with its financial model.
Let me state for the record: online armchair nerds bumming nuclear is incredibly irritating to anyone with sufficient expertise in energy projects to properly analyse the rationale for nuclear.

This comment quietly exposes one of the biggest unresolved contradictions in the far left agenda.
Have you any idea how damaging to the poorest 20% of the country a doubling of their heating bill is? That's what 'not having Nord Stream 2' essentially means, hand wavey utopianism about switching 400m people overnight to heat pumps run by renewable unicorn farts aside. "easy access to natural gas" is just code for "heating at an affordable price".
Renewable heat is an extremely expensive endeavour, and I should know, given its now my main professional focus and something I'm passionately in favour of. We simply arent ready or able, technologically, to transition away from natural gas in either power or heating markets.

The biggest issue with nuclear is cost of financing which in current environment of perpetually negative interest rates and gigadollars thrown around for every fart dick and joe is ridiculous.Anyone sensible?

It absolutely isnt. It's the fact that you are paying upfront for a 60 year piece of infrastructure the need for which isnt clear beyond a 15 year horizon and whose decommissioning costs are literally a wild guess (in an area where all previous wild guesses have been too low by several orders of magntitude) because no one actually knows how to do it.The biggest issue with nuclear is cost of financing which in current environment of perpetually negative interest rates and gigadollars thrown around for every fart dick and joe is ridiculous.Anyone sensible?

Then on top of all that, its ALSO the most expensive
And on top of that, it's putting all your eggs in one basket such that a single fuck up by a single welder during construction might delay the project 5 years and double its cost (as it has done in Flamanville)
By 15 year horizon, do you mean it's plausible that renewables will meet all our energy requirements within the next 15 years?
Personally I'd be willing to bet on it. Not energy though, just electricity. Heat and transport are both a bigger problem
The need is completely clear. Electricity need keeps climbing and will continue to climb for a long long while. A reliable base load is needed (and will always be needed). There is no need to put eggs in one basket thats why people are actually proposing nuclear. Renewables simply arent enough. They don't provide base load. They arent reliable. Id rather go the way of France than Germany.It absolutely isnt.

Saying anything else simply means you're kidding yourself or have a different agenda.
Or the society collapses.
What they need to do is focus even more on hydrogen cars and not them silly teslas...Personally I'd be willing to bet on it. Not energy though, just electricity. Heat and transport are both a bigger problem

what could go wrong.
Viking, n.:
1. Daring Scandinavian seafarers, explorers, adventurers, entrepreneurs world-famous for their aggressive, nautical import business, highly leveraged takeovers and blue eyes.
2. Bloodthirsty sea pirates who ravaged northern Europe beginning in the 9th century.
Hagar's note: The first definition is much preferred; the second is used only by malcontents, the envious, and disgruntled owners of waterfront property.
Ouch, took a look at our "public but only for qualified professionals, so not really public" document on projected climate change economic damages. I guess most people heard about that famous Nobel laureate who is prognosticating something like 2.5% cumulative GDP loss by end of century and all governments are taking that as gospel? While I'm certain our people are still sugarcoating things, but they are saying 25% total cumulative economic loss over next fifteen years.
[doubt]
At least from the climate that is, are we even going to notice much of a difference in the weather in 15 years? (The US collapsing into another civil war will falcon punch the global economy pretty good tho)
On a more upbeat note; 2 out of 12 provinces have reached max grid capability and no more solar or wind can be built in those areas. Grid upgrades are expected to take 5-7 years. Looks like we really planned ahead on this one. Big old rip.
25% loss to your country’s economy or the global economy? If it’s for your country, maybe it’s because it over-relies on tourism or other sectors that are more sensitive to climate change.
