TODAY, while solar and wind are needed to the fullest extent possible, on their own they cannot replace the energy derived from fossil fuels nor achieve "Net Zero" emissions and stop global warming for generations to come. Solar and wind require vast tracts of land and rely on their namesakes to produce energy from locations that maintain adequate sun/wind energy levels. They also do not qualify as Base Load Power Producers. That means they do not produce reliable continuous power. To provide uninterrupted, reliable power supply on any large scale, they require technology that doesn't exist today, vast energy storage which, if it did exist, would require vast additional tracts of land! Emissions from industries that produce solar and wind facilities NEGATE their PURITY. And we now have vast landfill graveyards of toxic obsolete/retired wind turbine & solar panel waste.
"Clean hydrogen" is a utopic solution but is far off in the distant future. Per the Office of Energy Efficiency & Renewable Energy (EERE), 95% of HYDROGEN produced in the United States today is made by natural gas reforming. SORRY PURISTS ... that ain't "Clean or Green hydrogen".
ENVIRONMENT PURISTS have . . .
. . . ENABLED and PERPETUATED more ENVIRONMENTAL DAMAGE than any MOVEMENT EVER ! ! !
We need a transition technology ...
