I think the renewable energy is the real straw-man.
What about the non-recycable waste after "renewable" energy. Windmills have steel coated by epoxy wings, those cannot be recycled.
Solar panels is also ready for the trash-heap after 20 years, due to being a complex composite..
The only real energy source that would help would be nuclear, but even if we get that where have more efficient room-heaters and better use of the computing.. (protein folding could be one for example)
