High fuel costs mean nearly half of the worlds coal power stations are already running at a loss, raising doubts about the viability of this fossil fuel. --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

Solar and wind are already much cheaper even without subsidies. Thanks to the market.
It's game over for coal. That is why for example India cancelled plans for a bunch of coal plants and is just installing new solar. --- Do good. Eat communists. ... Copied to Clipboard!

The people who don't want to train or try other careers deserve to lose the job. I believe bill Burr said it. These tiny towns that only exist because of coal factories deserve to die.

But coal country isn't willing to accept this and will just vote in people who lie to them

Maybe they should be scrubbing that coal harder to make it more clean and beautiful.

We are going to look back in 100 years and think we were fucking insane for burning this shit because of how useful it is. --- It says right here in Matthew 16:4 "Jesus doth not need a giant Mecha." https://imgur.com/dQgC4kv ...

We're going to remember that it was the bootloader for a cleaner and more sustainable society. It's cheap and easy to burn. Hence why it was adopted by everyone. You can't fault a young species for not knowing more than their science at the time enabled them to know. --- Do good. Eat communists. ... Copied to Clipboard!

We had more than enough science to understand we shouldn't be doing this since the 50s. Nuclear has always been a superior power source ever since it was invented. Obviously you can't just convert everything on a dime, but 60 years later there is no reason why anyone should think burning coal is still a good idea, even if it were profitable, which it isn't, and fucks the environment to boot. --- It says right here in Matthew 16:4 "Jesus doth not need a giant Mecha." https://imgur.com/dQgC4kv ...

And since the 50s is not that much time, believe it or not. A blip on the timeline of how long we've been around. Not to mention that large-scale changes take time, and solar/wind adoption is progressing faster than expected to begin with. (Fuck the baby boomers though, they could've done a lot of shit faster. But ultimately I'm pretty optimistic and happy nonetheless) --- Do good. Eat communists. ... Copied to Clipboard!

There is about a 70-year difference between the first coal power plant to the first nuclear power plant, and a 60 year difference from the first nuclear power plant to today. 60 year is a blip, but in the scheme of energy, it's almost half the fucking lifespan. --- It says right here in Matthew 16:4 "Jesus doth not need a giant Mecha." https://imgur.com/dQgC4kv ...
