So that "drill baby drill" didn't just backfire, it backfired spectacularly yo the point where I'm thinking that we still might have a chance to stop climate change. Thanks Cheetos!
Cuba was already on track to build solar farms back in 2023, with planned completion by 2025.
I hate to tell you, but building solar isn't going to do it. We need to basically defy thermodynamics in order to decarbonize the oceans and atmosphere simply to SURVIVE climate change. We are not stopping it. It's already at heat levels that were, at one point, predicted to arrive in the later half of this century.
Edit: why down votes? I don't understand. Nothing I said was wrong or rude or off topic. For what reason do people dislike this comment other than it made them feel sad?
I'm open to defying thermodynamics, if that's what it takes!
Yeah, let’s send thermodynamics to Guantanamo where we can violate them in freedom, FREEDOM! No interference from those pesky laws of physics, just FREEDOM
