2035 is only 12 years away. Capital investment of the magnitude require to significantly enhance energy product (renewable or fossil) is made with a 20-50 years time horizon. Land acquisition, permitting, overcoming legal challenges, and actual construction on major projects can easily take a decade. If it isn’t on the drawing board today, and funded within the next 2-3 years, it probably won’t happen by 2035.

Given what happened to the Keystone pipeline, would you invest money in a synthetic fuel manufacturing facility?

12 years away is a long time for people to realize the error of their ways. Infrastructure doesn’t take that long to build or to resurrect. The biggest policy change is not building again or restarting; it’s the changes in mind that the climate idiots will undergo or will be forced to make, because their policies will kill many economies and create poverty world-wide and people will revolt in numbers that the climate change idiots will have to notice..
