As somebody who has a degree in electric engineering, this whole 'green energy' madness going around for the last decade is a source of nightmares for me, the more I see the whole movement is driven by ideology, popular political decisions, rich virtue signaling westerners and hysterical activism.<br><br>Instead of making electric cars, we should have been looking for ways to limit the number of cars on the road and support mass transit.<br>Instead of building vast solar and wind farms, or cutting down millions of trees to burn as 'biofuel', we should be building nuclear power plants.<br><br>I'm not denying the change is needed, it definitely is, but the whole concept has been grasped from the wrong ends and thousands of people wiped their asses with it to make loads of money without actual care for the environment.<br>But people are just stupid and like to follow trends. And the richer they are, the more trendy they want to be to impress others.
