    Obviously we can't change to renewable overnight and there are issues to be hammered out. But what we are doing is unsustainable. Natural resources are finite. The impact of fossil fuels on the environment clear. Vulnerability to unstable oil-producing nations irrefutable.

    Stop the excuses. Things must change.

      again your premise is flawed and not accepted

      why is "what we are doing " unsustainable? when will it become unsustainable (when will our fossil fuel supplies not be able to keep up with our energy needs or when will we stop finding new deposits?)
      or are you talking about environmental unsustainability? in that case why are you talking to the US- the biggest producers of carbon are Russia, China and India and they dont give a rip about curbing carbon emissions- and are exempt from all climate change legislation in the Paris accords

      I dont have anything against Evs, or solar but Im certainly against crippling our business environment for a half assed effort where we are the only country that takes the hit- and if you were really serious about green energy,you wouldnt be dead set against Nuke power as it is currently the cleanest cheapest greenest of energy solutions

        The Environmental , sustainability, anti fossil fuel crowd always leaves out a few important details. The major sources of the components of clean energy are outside the United States. That goes from mining the raw materials to the manufacture of specific items involved in the machinery. We are now trying to play catch up, but as we do , we are enriching China and others along the way. The manufacture of many of those items is dependent upon fossil fuels , especially coal in China.
        Windmills are a very high maintenance cost and ma be difficult to access under certain weather conditions, when they are most prone to malfunction. Sorry to say , but the basic physics of power density still strongly favors fossil fuels and nuclear energy over solar and wind.

        The Biden Administration would like to spend money on charging stations, without significant improvements to the grid. You just can’t install all those power sucking stations and expect to have the voltage and amperage depend on much of the current infrastructure. More important, and a better way to spend the money, would be to improve the transportation problems of the supply chain. There is a dramatic shortage of heavy trucks and related equipment. Waiting times for new trucks may be a year or longer, as most need to be custom built for the specific purpose. There is a definitive lack of parking and facilities to handle the increased volume of on line commerce , which heavily depends on trucks and especially the last mile.

        Electric cars still represent less than 4 % of all vehicle sales in America. Electric trucks and big rigs are starting to be sold and developed, but are very limited. In addition, until logistical issues and hard core solutions to refrigeration without fossil fuel generation are viable, we will be dependent upon gas and diesel for quite some time, many decades at a minimum.

        The largest Electric Car manufacturer in the country , Tesla, manufactured less than 500,000 cars worldwide last year. A noble achievement , however Toyota , the. Worlds largest manufacturer , manufactured almost 8 million. Their top model sold over 400,000 in America alone. The overwhelming vast majority of those vehicles were ICU , and some hybrids, but very, very. Few, if any , Electric vehicles. They ar e finally getting into the he Electric vehicle market , and wil eventually offer a compete line. They wee reluctant to enter sooner, , because basically, their opinion was that their customers didn’t want them.

        The thought that there could be anything but a very, very slow movement away from ICE to Electric vehicles is pure fantasy. The electric cars are impractical for a large number of Americans, cost too much, cost 15-25 % more to insure, and the repair infrastructure is in its infancy and suffers from troubling issues regarding who can actually repair them. Access to their on board computer models for diagnostics may be limited to the manufacturer. That also does exist with ICE vehicles, but to a lesser extent.

        No one is “ cheering Putin On “ That is purely political spin, but the opinion of some is that the policy decisions and actions regarding foreign policy, energy policy, a display of weakness and a track record of the current President suggests more could have been done to avoid the present state of affairs. Putin is a maniac, and is responsible for his actions. But great Leadership , Vision and Wisdom is supposed to be a specific property of great Statesmen , and it is perfectly normal and within the rights of Americans to question the value of having Biden, and this Administration having the capacity to lead under the present circumstances.

        The mid terms can’t be soon enough. We will then see what the appetitive is of Americans. More of what they have seen and are living, or a change .

          “ natural resources are finite”
          And what will be done when the availability of the minerals and elements needed for “ clean energy “ are depleted? What will be done if those items may only be available for hostile countries or non allies? What will be do if a natural disaster , such as a volcano , cover a continent in ash or blocks sunlight for an extended period of time? How about a major earthquake that crumples solar planets in an instant? Nuclear power plants are well protected , and fossil fuel generators are reliable, transportable and even available in smaller models for on the spot energy availability. Fossil fuels were once theorized to be the remnants of deceased organic material, however new theories suggest it may actually be “ manufactured “ under the earth due to chemical reactions and pressures within the bowels of the earth. Either way, we will have ample fossil fuels fro centuries to come. There were projections in the past about “ running out of oil” by the 21st Century, now those projections are shown to be fantasy as new deposits have been, and are still being uncovered.

          ” The impact of fossil fuels on the environment is clear”

          Really how clear? And what of it? The UN’s report only indicated a global increase in temperature of a little more than one degree over many, many decades. The earth has gone through, and will continue to go though changes in the climate as it has done for billions of years. That’s natural , that’s inevitable regardless of any measures and posturing done to carnage it. The “green energy” movement is another money grab and reset in order to fill the pockets of specific groups who may virtue signal in some degrees, but the economic forces’s and the nearly insatiable appetite for greed is truly at the root of much of it. New technologies for indoor agriculture are being initiated that feed many more people per acre , with much less of a footprint, without pesticides, chemicals and environmental impact. Less and more efficient hydration methods are a bonus.

          Fossil fuels have, and continue , to be responsible for the largest increase in the quality of life, and standard of living for more people than any other influencer i n recorder history Not only for fuel, but so many other products and items like fertilizers, lotions, lubricants , etc. Many of them are essential item, well into the hundreds of different offerings that are widely available and can be relatively inexpensive.

          One need not be vulnerable to the unstable political leanings and events of oil producing countries , if you are lucky enough to be sitting in a country with the widest variety of sources, spread out over a huge land area with the available technology and equipment to utilize it. America is one of those countries . We can be energy independent, and also , have some significant collections of minerals in order to slowly incorporate green energy into he mix, as the scale is increased gradually, it may become more economically feasible for more and more of the population. However , it can’t be rammed down the throats of citizens , with drastic , haphazard emotional decisions and polices not rooted in reality to satisfy certain groups with various interests and expected outcomes.

            As I have told my con “friends” for years, ….

            if God didn’t want us to be dependent on digging up dead animals for fuel, he would have hung an inexhaustible nuclear fusion power plant in the sky ….

              However the history of bidens time as VP proovs history always repeats itself (especially for fools like you that choose to not learn from it).

              btw, putin justifies attacking Ukraine because he says he is fighting white supremacy and nazism. Perhaps you should remember this next time you hear the same justification by your own liberal slave masters.
              Oh con no worries ….we have noticed that BOTH the GQP and PUTIN use the same rhetoric to rationalize their anti-Democratic behavior.

              As for the bolded things, you seem to misspell in the same
              manner as some Russian colleagues do.

              intersecting

              prove you don’t work on Vald’s troll farm please, if you can

              we really have no way of knowing why you spew so much pro-Russia propaganda and should entertain the obvious reasons

              I note how many column inches you wrote today about energy prices

                pro russia propaganda? biden is your boy for that....pressure from all sides is telling him not to buy anymore russian oil.....seriously, he has to be told that?
                but its ok, now that he will be buying oil from venezuelan dictator? a great friend of putin and also of the co-founders of blm.

                a deaf blind and dumb sheep is all you will ever be.

                  and its always curious to me when all of the climate doomsdayers ignore the role of the sun in their models of climate disaster- we cant control the suns output but we can track it yet thats never part of the equation
                  there is a role for all forms of energy, its the dems that want to use the least efficient and most costly at the expense of all others

                    Are you day drinking? Because there doesn’t seem to be a “point” to that “word salad” but I’m always willing to go the extra mile to bridge the communication gap so,

                    please explain

                    1) what is this purported “role of the sun” in “climate disaster” you speak of? You are needlessly vague. Be a little more specific

                    2) the suns output varies about 0.1% (that’s 1 in 1000 during its regular cycles, that’s all

                    3) sorry NOT sorry but the people who measure and track these things over at NASA say sun has NOTHING to do With the trend of global warming

                    but as always If TC is posting, you will NEVER lose money betting that he is just wrong on the facts

                        “Putin’s Price Hike”
                        That’s what Joe Biden is calling the recent increases in fuel prices. No mention of the price increases that have occurred previous to the Ukraine invasion.
                        And he tell us that prices will go higher “ as freedom has a price”

                        Jerry, a Trucker from Mass, says “it’s difficult to make any money out here now. Today it cost me $ 700 to fill up. Two weeks ago it was $ 500. In two weeks it will be $ 200 more.”
                        Nearly everything over by truck Joe. And on Bills of Lading, there is a small paragraph that says “ fuel cost surcharge” . And that surcharge will be added on to the cost of the goods. Think we have seen the end of 40 year high inflation?

                        Well done Joe , well done.

                          Biden won’t even acknowledge Tesla because it isn’t a union shop. Once again, just like the vaccine, he is weaponizing and politicizing a solution to a problem. Polarizing people instead of unifying. After all, if his goal is to get more evs, why not present all options, other than pandering for a vote instead of doing what is right for the world. Honestly, don’t know why he even cares about upsetting union. He is a one term prez, if he lasts that long. He has no shot at reelection and quite frankly, he already lost midterms, it is just by how much. 5 dollar gas is going to have consequences and he is sitting in the big chair at the big table. He can’t blame trump….he could, but that will get him nothing

                            Update….4.45 now. Changed when I went in this morning and changed again sometime later as that was the price when I was going home.

                            Called on home heating oil for ****ts and giggles. 5.19 today in Fairfield. Good thing I filled both tanks a week ago. Turned down the thermostat as well.

                              Thank you. I try to avoid such long posts , however we are now living in age of Propaganda, mostly by the left , that appears to be unmatched in modern history. The left has extended its tentacles so deep, into so many areas , there is little left that may be still safe for believability. And they , and their conspirators , are working overtime to silence any dissent or opposing viewpoints that challenges the narrative.
