With the technology available to early 21st century man, dependence on electric vehicles means dependence on nuclear power.

It’s really that simple. It may be why so many “anti-nuclear” activists of old are coming around to the safety and output of nuclear plats.

It's pretty common knowledge that China is experiencing power outages all over. The reason is they have ceased coal power generation

Ceased because they want to emit less CO2? They want to be green? Or is there another reason?

China is having power blackouts all over the country due to not enough coal. They don't have enough for the country from their own supply and a growing trade war with Australia have curtailed imports. Power constraints are impacting ever more parts of China's huge manufacturing economy, with Goldman Sachs estimating that as much as 44% of national industrial activity has been affected. As many as 20 provinces are believed to be experiencing the crisis to some degree, with factories temporarily shuttered or working on short hours. Last week, power rationing has been implemented during peak hours in many parts of north-eastern China, with news reports and social media posts showing outages of traffic lights and 3G communications networks in the region.

I ceased using the term ‘fossil fuels’ many years ago when learned about abiotic hydrocarbons. We have only drilled a few short miles into the Earth. We have no idea how much we can do.

On the moons of Jupiter and Saturn are oceans of hydrocarbons. I doubt that ancient dinosaurs and savannas are the source of the hydrocarbons.

Trump proved that drill baby drill works. We were exporting LNG to Europe before SloJo.

Easier to blame the US and Europe than to admit you screwed up.

He wants his citizens pissed at others rather than him.

And he isn't afraid to lie. Why did you believe him?

In your blind bigotry you can’t grasp the fact I didn’t believe him

I am capable of rational thought and not so narrow minded I can’t observe and then report.

You jumped to a self righteous conclusion that is unwarranted
