It would be helpful if the artcle mentioned:
- Subsidies for renewables. That is, what are the true costs of each type of energy? It would be foolish to try to make renewables more attractive by...lowering the cost of fossil fuels. That's what's happening, but to what extent?
- Opportunity cost. Effectively, what could $7T buy if those resources were redirected elsewhere? Would we have fusion by now? Certainly we'd be closer. But instead we're subsidizing the energy equivalent of fax machines?
