people end up barricated on one side or another, it takes effort to remain flexible... there are plenty of industrial scale solar facilities that work at night, don't use enviromentally taxing materials... and have near zero wear ... the name ? parabolic through molten salt centrals.... and they have been built on nuclear-scale powers.
We just have to go to our 'leaders' and pull their heads out of their asses, so they can make industrial entities build these facilities, not for fucking 'profit' but because we need it as a species. And it's only 'hard' 'utopian' until we just roll our sleeves and fucking do it. We have been brainwashed collectively that anything truly 'good' cannot be done. This is on purpose people, wake up.
And don't get me wrong nuclear is surely interesting and useful in many cirumstances.. but let it be fusion then... sell a bunch of useless military asses and finance research. We are being played like a a bunch of sheep, millions of us, ruled by couple of dogs and propaganda.
