[QUOTE="carlv_52, post: 74115562, member: 420395"] This is a real problem. People are A-OK with these initiatives until it impacts their home value. BUT, that being said, there isn't really an option. We could scale nuclear which is about the greenest scalable energy system we have but that's not attractive. Or we can scale green which is more palatable to a lot of folks, but can result in some different forms of nimby-ism. But, again, there literally is NO ALTERNATIVE. We [I]have[/I] to get off carbon as a fuel source and we have to do it ASAP. The longer we waste time trying to explain simple science to people who have a vested interest in their own ignorance the more draconian the change requirements will become. This is a one-way trip and we are running headlong down the path. [/QUOTE]
