We need to trick the business to making big solar, wind, and nuclear power plants, and when they say “we got all the power plants you asked for, now how do we make the laser you were talking about” and I’ll turn around and pull down my pants, showing my ass to the multimillion dollar ceo ultimately before I get dragged out and arrested for business collusion

We are already actively growing through this. Legislators and companies are leaning much more on nuclear as power needs greatly increase because of data centers. The thing is the people don’t want data centers.

When you say “green” do you mean “eco-friendly”/“better carbon-wise”or are you referring to the Green Party?

no, normal people are just incredibly propagandized by well funded anti green energy groups, and pro green energy people arent making the right arguments in public. so the average person is left either anti renewable to preserve their way of life or indifferent and defaulting to the status quo

thats the thing though, it wouldnt require a massive change in how we live our lives. apart from switching the green alternatives like electric vehicles, everything an individual does would stay pretty much the same. thats why people are against renewables, they think its part of a larger agenda to make their lives worse

Nuclear might be necessary anyway, because solar power requires land, and coastal cities don’t want offshore wind and there are concerns about the impact to marine wildlife. We can’t do solar/wind alone or nuclear alone but they can work hand in hand

no, the issue is people sneaking in a whole host of other politics into green energy. no, the average person is not getting on board with green energy if it means socialism or communism lmao, but the point is the green energy revolution is completely compatible with capitalism
