Exactly, they pushed the ice age bullshit until they couldn’t. I’ve looked back, global cooling then global warming then just climate change because they couldn’t hit defined metrics. It’s always been a scam. We got cheated out of awesome muscle cars in the 80’s due to the fake oil shortage and now they’re pushing electric as the better than sliced bread save the planet omgbbqwtf11!!1 when there’s not enough lithium available to change every car over much less replace them in 10 years. They’ll always find a new scam but we still need ways to propel ourselves to the future.
Electricity is the first thing disrupted in any weather. Like hang on stupid. The first thing to get disrupted by the weather is the thing they're selling because the weather is changing? What's up doc. Profit. Simple. If everything is plugged in. How much more electricity do they make? When it fails they make even more. Hahaha.
But is it a better system. You're all on the meters like cab fare. Ding ding ding. That one isn't, tax them for it. Or harvest their organs. Bulk data collect their brains, and don't forget to charge them for it. It really helps the inflation. More credit to buy more electric debt.
Home off the grid solar is a solution if you can afford the setup, batteries and replacement costs. I’d rather pay to set up a small nuclear generator and pay for technicians to come service it once every 5 years while society lasts and take care of it myself after it crumbles. Multi day snow storms are a thing and solar don’t do shit under 3 feet of snow. Once the batteries run out you better have a fireplace in your castle, but I’d much rather have a fireplace AND my own small power generator station. Like everyone owning car instead of taking a bus, it’s more parts and upkeep but everyone has far more redundancy and can keep power going in extreme condtions that break power lines and poles.
It fucking isn't. It really fucking isn't. It damages your house. Anywhere with it is gonna break sooner, as soon as storm, roof, leaks, window can't see out of, don't charge properly, they made this Solar road in France, what went wrong, the road did, and the stupid battery. That battery is often even worse. But it doesn't even provide 30% output, on your demand, it needs a constant back up, and depending on where you are much less. Too hot it doesn't work, the acid depletes, no light no charge. The panels are stacking up like rubber tyres. Billions and billions of tonnes of their horrible waste, it doesn't recycle effectively. It has acid, lead, plastic, and a shit for shit battery. It is just a way of selling another crappy service. A service under constant maintenance, constant repair, constant parts.
A windmill, turbine is better. Again subjective to the weather. But hell you could probably fix it. Panel no chance. Think on that. You want self sufficiency. But you have to make panels and batteries. Hahaha. No chance, services, parts, constant costs. Turbine is better. But it really isn't environmental. You need this big huge pylon and the land cleared, it still falls on your house. But hell you could probably fix it. Nuclear, that fuel isn't available.
Although nothing beats your own ability to make fire. Nothing historically has. Any system where you can power off of it is the only system you complete have control over.
Windmill yes but as you said wind dependant. I have trees on my property and water from the well and dugout. In a desperate situation I can take the multiple spare alternators off my fleet of cars and hook them to a simple windmill or build a steam generator that’s word burning to produce electricity as well as secondary heating. Super cheap plentiful fuel, just a lot of work on my end but doable.
Nuclear fuel could be available and cheap if it wasn’t for idiots and hippies (whops tautology!) being anti nuclear since the 70’s. Theyd rather have a battery powered car same as their cell phone charger by a nimby coal plant.
