Climate Change is real, is it some emergency where if we don't do something about it in the next 10 years, we are all doom, no. Some proposal I don't like as it would negatively impact the lives of millions maybe even billions. There are some proposals I do like for having alternative energy source and slowly building that up.
- Having more solar panels in areas that are more viable such as flat rural areas that get lots of sunlight. This doesn't mean to soley rely on solar panels as they are not as efficient to your fossil fuels counterparts because solar panels doesn't have a high conversion rate of energy. Residential use of solar panels does make sense as the energy demands from homes can upkeep with solar panels. again, this doesn't mean get rid of your oil or gas fired heating source, but the more we can have homes and businesses be less reliant on a PowerGrid, the less strain gets put on a PowerGrid. solar panels are also great so if the grid goes down at least people still have power, solar batteries are still really expensive and can't hold a lot of electricity but I def support the continue funding the research to make them better and cheaper. STILL KEEP YOUR GAS GENERATOR!
- Geothermal is also great for homes that are in areas where that is an option, it does show it be really efficient with transferring its energy and is great because you don't need to rely on gas or oil. The cost and maintenance is pretty high compared to your traditional gas and oil heat source though and again, not everyone can get geothermal.
- having power grids be built underground instead of above ground is great as it is more resistant to the elements and weather.
- my knowledge on wind energy is limited but im pretty sure its less efficient than solar, you need massive land plots to install them, and the cost and maintenance is pretty damn high so i find it to be pointless and not worth the funding.
- hydro energy is great.
