Not only fossil fuels, but there may be a new push for nuclear energy, considering it actually meets the carbon emission “problem” causing all this global wa... climate ch... bad juju that humans cause by just existing on the pla... Gaia.

“...there may be a new push for nuclear energy...”

We will become more vulnerable to muzzie terrorism.
Nuclear power plants and muzzies do not mix.

There are two plants being built in Georgia, two in South Carolina.
Given the capital costs and multi-year timeframes, I don’t think there will be a rush to build even more.
What we COULD see is many of the existing plants that have operating licenses rush to get them renewed, and possibly new pebble bed reactors as additions to existing nuclear power plants.

A cool thing would be adding new hydro-electric capacity at existing dams, something the ASME said would equal about 1% of our current capacity. And NIMBY doesn’t apply because the dams are already there.
