I mean, EVs are not going to save the earth. Investments/innovations into our infrastructures will.

Nuclear power is the only thing currently that can save us. Unfortunately, we have ill-informed people not understanding what nuclear is.

I just posted this article separately, but renewables and particularly solar combined with better storage are enough to save us. https://powering-the-planet.ghost.io/untitled-3/

That's the problem. Storage. Current battery tech just doesn't scale. Nuclear fills those gaps for night time and cloudy days.

We literally can just run 100% electric right now with zero emissions today if the world went nuclear. We already have the tech today. It's scalable today.

No need to wait to develop new battery tech. Our future is in our hands right now.

They'll ignore this because it doesn't fit their narrative of one capitalist owning all the means of power. Cool article though!

I still want my nuclear car GM!

Nuclear can power hydrogen generators that power a hydrogen car.

Don't even need to make any nasty batteries from cobalt. Or mine for lithium.
