Carbon free does not equate to green. Most non-carbon sources of electricity have environmental problems of their own. Also, the mass balance of the materials required for non carbon generation to replace carbon generated sources will have a dramatic impact impact on the environment.

Wind and solar farms don't produce enough stable power to replace heating energy. Moving natural gas consumption to hydro electricity or nuclear power costs about $1000 per ton of greenhouse gases. Not really economically efficient until you replace all transportation. Plus, you'll see renewable natural gas initiatives, power to gas initiatives and hydrogen that will all blend to reduce

I am currently reading the book The Green New Deal. It talks about completely replacing oil and gas for supplying energy needs with electricity derived from renewable sources. I can't address your specific criticisms as I'm not an expert in the area, but if these ideas are enacted into policy, it would be very bad news for companies producing or distributing oil or natural gas.

I am currently reading "Living with the Kardashians" where they think that "pink" coloured lipstick will be the new vogue colour  in the fall. LOL! So what Vega. Besides should you not be checking to see what AQN is presently doing at this time? You know...the stock you sold Alta to buy about 1 week ago? And if you were reading this book, then why were you holding Alta

The Green New Deal was written by Jeremy Rifkin, who is an advisor to the European Union. To equate that book to some fictitious book about the Kardashians shows what an idiot you are. You live with your head in the sand and seem to be content with that, but there is a very good chance that the ideas contained in the book will become policy. In that case, many of your stock investments could

Here's another article for you to read, idiot. https://www.cbc.ca/news/technology/greener-heating-1.5429709#:~:text=In%20provinces%20with%20an%20electrical,nearly%20eliminate%20a%20home's%20emissions.

Sensitive aren't we Vega... I know what it is and read extracts of it before you started using your acne medication.  My parents paid a pretty penny getting me an education at an "elite" university unlike your community college degree which is not worth the paper it's printed on. It wasn't the book I was poking fun at silly.  It's your " flavour of the

OMG.......Here we go again. Yes will be correct in about 70-100 years from now when there will be a new stable technology. Todays solar and wind technology does not work in northern climates that need heating 6 months a year. De-carbonized nat gas is the fuel of the future as it will be cheaper than anything else and nat gas readily available.
