You already said that, and you're ignoring the fact that many countries are switching from coal and nuclear to renewables, thanks in part to the rapidly falling prices.

So what you're trying to say is - "In the past prices fell extremely fast, now they're falling just regular fast".

China are currently building 27 fission reactors, and the construction time is 7 years. If it takes 7 years to build something that is known and has been done a couple of hundred times before, I think it's safe to say it will take more

Given how rapidly the price of batteries and solar are falling, it seems absurd to think it will make any economic sense to spend tens of billions of dollars on a monster fusion plant. China are churning out regular old fission plants, and

Once you've been out of a city for a while the smell of car exhaust can be extremely strong. Every time I fly into LAX from northern Canada I get a punch in the lungs - it's horrible. There must be some severe long-term health imp

Not every flight needs to cross the entire continent, just like not every drive requires a vehicle that gets 1000+ miles of range. I'd bet the very vast majority of private flights in North America are less than 1200 miles.

Right, and "protecting jobs" is more important than allowing companies and products to compete on their own merits. As a consumer, I am now punished because the foreign owned companies that choose to assemble vehicles in Canada ca

And I'm in the rocky mountains in Canada, where basically everyone says "Solar will never work here". In my experience, solar works everywhere. TONS of friends in Alaska and Yukon have been off grid since ~2010.

I did my part. I just wrapped up installing a 7.3kW system on my roof at 49.5°N. Yesterday was the highest day of output so far, 50.17 kWh I'm extremely happy and can't stop checking the app. Our first bill just came in, -$57.
