Nuclear or fusion, if it ever becomes a reality.

To broaden the subject just a bit, and while I appreciate some of her passion for this subject, I would ask the Greta Thunburg's of the World to imagine a world with only renewable energy, and then spend a summer of that World in Louisiana or Florida, or in any country on the Mediterranean, and then see if they don't go screaming to turn down the thermostat, only to find that renewable energy can't power the big machines needed. It's easy to yell and holler from Sweden which doesn't experience 90% humidity and 90plus F temps. Get the infrastructure in place that can run on low Amperage, then come back and we'll talk.
