@vnkr @greenpeace So, the game is blaming? It's not a pissing contest for blame. Regulatory issues, totally agree on that one. Recycling and energy capacity issues, also agree. Outdated current technology, maybe. But shouting who's to blame will not help us one inch further into a better battery solution. More money to science maybe.
Putting a stop to burning fuels...is ...currently....not ....globally ...possible.
@TomDB @greenpeace ah, you are right. Let's not mention it then. Just keep using oil.
The comment was designed to provoke a thought that perhaps there's a better way of powering out lives. But alas, not currently possible. Dismissed

@vnkr @greenpeace And so the common people can really sway the regulatory side, yeah, totally true. so yeah, this comment is very useful in this platform.
I’d rather see them pressuring governments. I’m all for that.

@Meema1616 @greenpeace Proove me wrong based on science, the current geopolitics and with regard for lands use for global renewable energy compared to land use for foods if that's all you can post.

@TomDB @greenpeace You ask for science and I return with ecological advantage. Solar panels produce zero greenhouse gases (GHGs) like carbon dioxide during operation.
A single residential system can offset approximately 100,000 pounds of carbon over 20 years, equivalent to planting over 100 trees annually.
Long term the distribution of solar or wind gives this planet a longer life. Lining pockets of petroleum billionaires not so much. -

@TomDB @greenpeace only common people together can do anything. Governments won't do shit if not pushed from below.
And making common people think about these topics is the first step into making some of them act. -
@TomDB @vnkr @greenpeace Follow the $$. The Petroleum Industry owns the world and they are NOT giving up all they reap from it! People need to push for more solar and wind. So this is a perfect opportunity for them too have their voices amplified!!
@Meema1616 @vnkr @greenpeace No, governments need to do that. People are not making up the rules to sway those policies when powerful lobbyist are at work behind the scenes. It’s about policy.

@Meema1616 @vnkr @greenpeace I feel Greenpeace is barking at the wrong tree, we all, myself included, do want a change in energy use. But we already know that. It still is a process, which takes time, more than we want but still it does. Amplifying a message is nice, playing along the policy way to change it is better. They should TALK more and invest in the science communication of it to pursuade them.

@TomDB @Meema1616 @greenpeace governments absolutely need to do that. But they won't do that if we don't tell them it needs to be done.

@vnkr @Meema1616 @greenpeace I haven’t met many governments that listened to their citizens unfortunately. 🫤

@TomDB @vnkr @greenpeace I will continue the conversation but will ALWAYS PUSH FOR A CLEAN AIR PLANET SURVIVAL STRATEGY. Sorry my caps lock stayed on.

The time when we all are using (hopefully) electricity to heat our houses. They won't work then. I hope we all already know that not using fossil fuels is an ecological advantage but that was never my point. My point was about the practicality of providing the global population with the necessary energy. Ecological advantage has no meaning when you can't produce electricity when it's dark.

️ Billionaires have had their day dictating how I live. I’m a loud and proud planet advocate @Meema1616 @vnkr @greenpeace I applaud that, and I also wish for that future, but again, that was not my point. We're just not ready from a practical standpoint to switch all the fossil fuels right now to no fossil use. And greenpeace has been stubborn in keeping that narrative to the people like it already is. It's just not. Don't I want less fossil use? Off course I do. But I'm not blind for the reality of the present. No worries on the caps-lock

You know what WON’T get stuck in the Strait of Hormuz?
Solar and wind energy
@greenpeace geothermal & passivhaus

You know what WON’T get stuck in the Strait of Hormuz?
Solar and wind energy
@greenpeace What if the components for solar and wind farms are on ships going through there?
-
@greenpeace And nuclear energy. Works great for years on end without any imports.
@collectifission Keep in mind that China is still too reliant for its oil coming via this route. And if The Belt and Road Initiative is to continue the transition to cleaner energy, like #TMSR tech, then China needs to have this source to implement its new 15 year strategy.

@greenpeace I’m sorry solar pannels travel from China to Europe through Suez, and the mining needed to produce them should worry your organization.

@numodular yeah, I know. I was just responding to some Greenpeace shitposting
But this could create a silver lining: knowing how France went with the Messmer plan as a response to the 1970s oil crisis, this might in fact trigger something similar. It could be the biggest boon for nuclear power in a generation.

@greenpeace or the geotermal energy from the north

@greenpeace Pity the sun doesn’t shine at night and battery complexes aren’t yet build over there. We’re not yet at the right stage for this comment.

@TomDB @vnkr @greenpeace If we wait till the world ( who really does that mean?) is ready… well women wouldn’t vote, disease would still kill off babies ( soap was a game changer) oceans would all be polluted, we’d have never been capable of any change at all!!! We are watching as our forests die, as our ocean mammals suffer, as our planet screams ENOUGH! Waiting for Ready is just a state of inertia. Sometimes ready is NOW!
