New Bladeless Wind Generators...

79. Fossil fuels are cheaper, but they emit obvious carbon

Although, the carbon emissions from US automobiles has GREATLY reduced in my lifetime. Lithium Ion is a great technology, but it has upside costs too like the carbon that it takes to mine, produce and maintain the batteries in vehicles. Then there is disposal.

Nuclear is the best option for grid production and is an endless supply. There are costs, but pound for pound, the rods last a long time and are much easier to deal with than ten million cracked fiberglass windmill blades. The propaganda against nuclear has been strong through. I remember watching The China Syndrome when I was a young man and being totally anti-nuclear...But that's why you carefully regulate that industry. With careful regulation it is the best overall option.

Also, regarding carbon...This is something people like to stick their fingers in their ears and go "lalalalalaaaaa" about when it is brought up, but here we go.

China and India don't give a rats ass about carbon emissions and they never will, yet the US has to toe the line on carbon emissions, which kills our job creation. These two counties alone spew billions of tons of carbon into the atmosphere ...Since we all live on the same planet, this brings me to my famous quotation:

"There aren't any no pissing ends of a swimming pool"
