To go to all wind energy in the US would require steel equal to 4 years worth of US production.
And $1,200,000,000,000.
1.2 trillion dollars.
For 1.2 million wind turbines that each last 25 years.

Resources wasted by planned obsolescence. Doc on this. The lightbulb conspiracy.
Without profit greed there could be enough to go around.
Cars built to last 100 years etc.
One wood cup instead of 1000 paper cups etc
The cycle goes on regardless of politics.
Oil times make science men. Science men make lockdowns. Lockdowns make hard times. Hard times make strong men. Strong men make oil times.
