Suicide. If your dead you wont use coal and you wont pester those who do with your self righteous BS.

…and I suppose if you mention the word "nuclear" you do so at your own peril. The fact that a reactor produces next to nil greenhouse gases always seems to be overlooked by the "green" fraternity. Yes there is nuclear waste that has to be disposed of like burying deep down in a geologically stable environment. Yes the operation and the design of the plant is critical for safety reasons but hey, the world has come a long way from the days of Chernobyl (them slack Ruskies again) and Fukashima (site, site, site - build on the rock and not on the sand). People, more lives are lost through conventional mining than are lost through nuclear accidents. And what would you prefer to have in your backyard, a small HELE reactor or an ugly, abstentions wind farm or acres of solar farm panels?

Oil and gas is not ideal for the electric grid because it is needed for mobile industrial equipment and will run out in the next 60 years.

The predominant uses of electricity is in buildings. Somewhere between half and 95% of electricity is used for Heating, cooling, and lighting. Lighting can be reduced by using more natural sun windows and red LED lights at night. Geothermal systems can store heat in deep wells in the summer and use it in the winter, compared with traditional systems that release the heat to the outside air. These are all components of green buildings.

Nearly half of electricity is lost in transmission so I find it hard to believe half to 95% is used for heating. To find a better way to transfer the electricity could make a huge impact. Some natural gas is used to produce electricity and some coal. The burning if coal can be done fairly efficiently with new technologies, however you will always have those trying to do things as cheap and easy as possible. We have natural gas and petroleum to last more than 60 years, the problem is it becomes more expensive and disruptive to get it. People often over look the fact that much of the plastic is also made from petroleum and simply reducing the number of plastic shopping bags is hardly going to make a difference. Hydro power and electricity has been used for hundreds of years, but now they are worried about the fish and other things impacted. Wind farms have disrupted migratory birds, any thing that people come up with have pros and cons. Since Covid people have not been flying as much and this is causing the global warming to increase because the haze for the airplane emissions has been greatly reduced allowing more solar to make it to the earth, in return we have more fires in western US and people running more AC for cooling. So to make dramatic changes very quickly could cause many more problems short term then they benefit in the long term. A much better way to control energy use or pollution is to control the population.
