Nuclear Power the Answer to Climate Change? | Joe Rogan Experience

Well no shit. Yet the hysterical leftists think it's dangerous because of what happened in a 1960s technology plant in the Soviet Union and no nukes and shit. Idiots
 
There is no pathway to full EV usage countrywide that I can think of that doesn't include nuclear power. You can't build enough windmills to meet the power demands of every swinging dick having a Tesla to be charged overnight.

While on a run, I heard a mild hybrid Honda creep up to a stop sign behind me and it got me thinking that the best solution for cars (right now) is actually mild hybrids. They say the average commute is something like 8 miles, and most Americans - particularly in cities - don't drive more than 25-30 miles a day. Mild hybrids use small batteries so there's far less mining and pollution, and have regenerative braking. That type of vehicle with 40 miles of electric-only range could be recharged with far less stress on the electrical grid, would lead to probably 3/4 of vehicles on the road being electric-only on average days, are far cheaper to buy, and still offer long range flexibility with gas as an option.

That and don't build a nuke in a tsunami or earthquake zone and have a back up generator that won't be underwater.
 
I like my diesel pick up and climate change is complete bullshit. The climate changes. Fact. We have vast amounts of oil it's the second most common liquid on the planet. The elite one worlders can't control oil. But they sure as hell can control electricity.

Get rid of the federal and state incentives to buy an EV and the trillion or so to upgrade the electrical grid and build charging stations, then I don't care what you buy. If you want to buy a hybrid and buy your own rapid charge station at home, then good for you. Just don't pretend that driving a EV freight truck across country is going to ever be economic.
 
I reject the entire premise of the EV "need"

Cheap renewable carbon fuel

America has clean air even in the LA basin

And industry has an incentive to keep going

Leave the bullshit and dirty air to China. Fight against climate change commies who want to bring America down

Now scale lithium battery mining and disposal.

It's hard is what I am hearing.
