These people are uneducated anti-human Malthusians. In their world, all fossil fuels projects are bad, and all solar/wind projects are good. That is an uneducated and unscientific framing of the problem that will yield a terrible solut

"nuclear is demonstrably more expensive than renewables" This is highly debatable, and very subject to change. Energy is the trump card of currencies, as the international currency market is now clearly demonstrating. Let's s

Axios had serious reporting in many areas, and managed to build a following without resorting to clickbait. They managed a great exit for a media company. They are the anti-buzzfeed. Hopefully this inspires more of the same.
