Australia considering more than 100 fossil fuel projects that could produce 5% of global industrial emissions

I think more people realize renewable energy is not here just yet and that it is going to take lots of fossil fuel to enable the creation of renewables to power our world and that will be years and decades down the road.

We are on the same page here. Yet we have to start someplace, which I believe is the message you've been trying to convey throughout this thread.

I still believe that the biggest problem though is too many people, all wanting to do things and enjoy life, than getting exercise at a gym, and actually doing things rather than sitting in a 20 foot cubicle watching virtual things on a computer screen.

Transporting electrical energy from the huge plants has efficiency concerns in relation to line losses and the cost of the transport lines becomes significantly higher Both for materials and spacing.

Keep in mind I have NO message to communicate. I just a 70 year old guy thinking about the future of our 24 year old kids in college.

2 years ago when I realized the ICE age was ending I seriously embraced mastering EVs pro and cons. Clearly mastering Full Self Driving is going to be a game changer for old men trying to hang on to our car keys.

A game changer also for the car insurance industry as liability shifts from the old decrepit drivers to software liability.

Good point and that's why I plan to insure through Tesla assuming I have one when that day comes.

Were you born optimistic or just got that way over time?

Maybe, but not being at the table is a bigger, way, way bigger issue.

Please explain that to China and Russia who are not present at COP26. Those countries are chiefly interested in protecting their interests. Unfortunately they are not woke.

I work on the construction side building dealerships for all brands. The charger requirements change daily (or so it seems) depending on the brand. We have one project that charging requirements have changed three times during construction.

that aside, the auto manufacturers are starting to tell us to install battery storage rooms inside the dealerships. When we explain what the fire codes require for lithium ion battery storage they go quiet and drop the requirement. This makes me think that the world (or local fore departments)is not ready for piles of old lithium ion batteries.
