70% of Farmers Can't Afford Fertilizer

This is what I voted for.

Green energy means the input that's converted to energy is green. Not the associated industrial ecosystem that's already deployed without much consideration for being ecologically adverse.

Solar panels are twenty year life cycle infrastructure investments, at which point they end up in a landfill. No different than anything else in construction.

Right, so lets go strip mine the Eastern half of Oregon to get the $1.5 trillion in lithium needed to support this green initiative.

Huh? You're aware Trump is using Executive power to block every wind and solar project he can, right?

Sadly for America, there's a lot of windmills in Texas. What did we strip mine for that?

"Helium, another gas byproduct, is used to make the semiconductors in green energy systems. In normal times, Qatar produces a third of the world's helium but has shuttered its gas industry. "

Oh, so this is why they were out of Helium at the Dollar Tree the other day. Makes perfect sense. Helium is a truly non-renewable resource; once it's not contained it is so light that it floats up out of the earth's atmosphere and ends up lost in space, like HeliumRat. That we fill children's balloons with this stuff is an testament to how stupid Capitalism is at expecting the market to rationally manage a scarce resource; particularly a non-renewable one.

The Trump administration has effectively frozen 165 new onshore wind farm developments in the US, leaving the projects on private land in limbo, the Financial Times reported yesterday. Combined, they represent around 30 gigawatts of electric generating capacity.

Anything else, shit for brains?
