Hi Everyone,

The usual Saturday post has moved to Sunday to mix things up a little and keep everyone on their toes. I will preface this by saying Unpopular Opinion, but this week, we have COP 28 in my neck of the woods, and although I am all for climate change, I am surprised at the audacity of prominent people in power continuously pushing for an immediate end to fossil fuels without actually thinking.

  1. They all arrived on planes (burning fossil fuels as SAF is not there yet).
  2. Renewable electricity is nowhere near where it must be worldwide to end fossil fuels.
  3. A significant proportion of their GDP comes from taxes and levies on fossil fuel products (i.e. fuel levy).
  4. To electrify the world, we need Rare Earth Materials along with Copper, Lithium, Cobalt, etc. How do these people think these materials come out of the ground?
  5. Where do these people think plastic (used in just about everything) comes from?

Crazy! What they should really be saying is, let’s (re)integrate Nuclear power into the mix, and then yes, we can really change quickly. More on why in a next…
