But in the meantime oil and natural gas have their place.
Dig a ten square mile hole in the desert, we would have place to store the entire world’s nuclear waste for the next 20,000 years.

When the sunlight is being reflected back by solar panels, wouldn’t that cause climate change too?

When the wind is slowed down by wind turbines, does that not change the environment and cause extinction?

Regardless of what you believe, the sooner humanity is extinct, the better.

You are right however the difference now is humans are using 100 million barrels of oil per day, if you think that has no negative consequence on the climate you are naive.

i suppose next you alarmists are going to claim that humans had something to do with the extinction of the mastadon and dire wolf as well.
And the CO2 levels were higher during glacial periods than it is today!
