“Costs are neglectable”. So will the bank forgive my loan on renewables? How silly are these comments?

He's doing everything right so far. He's very obviously a socialist so I'm all for him

Why? Isn't he also a sleezeball, just not as insane and dangerous as Bolsenaro?

Anyway, I hope for the best in Brazil. People should deserve better than what they had the last few years.

It's a bit like planting trees. The ones you plant today will be mature in 10-20 years (just as an example, I know there are fast growing trees), the more you keep planting the more trees there will be around.

Really sorry for your loss. For my grandmother it was less than a month…

DON'T CALL IT A COMEBACK,

because it's not

Cost of electricity by source

>Different methods of electricity generation can incur a variety of different costs, which can be divided into three general categories: 1) wholesale costs, or all costs paid by utilities associated with acquiring and distributing electricity to consumers, 2) retail costs paid by consumers, and 3) external costs, or externalities, imposed on society. Wholesale costs include initial capital, operations & maintenance (O&M), transmission, and costs of decommissioning. Depending on the local regulatory environment, some or all wholesale costs may be passed through to consumers.

Energy return on investment

>In energy economics and ecological energetics, energy return on investment (EROI), also sometimes called energy returned on energy invested (ERoEI), is the ratio of the amount of usable energy (the exergy) delivered from a particular energy resource to the amount of exergy used to obtain that energy resource.

According to Wikipedia, it's onshore wind. The large up front investments are true and the amortization period is longer than for fossil fuels but compared to the societal and long term/eternal costs of using fossil fuels and nuclear energy, the costs are neglectable

Not to dismiss the life they've saved or the risks they took, but I find it very hard to smile about anything regarding Palestine's situation.

3 times hoorah for Vladimir.

Many small biotech companies fall prey to predatory powers on the stock market and are basically shorted into oblivion. Which in turn makes it hard for said company to get funding from the appearance of not performing well as a good return. Then the company goes down and research halts and is dead in the water. Not the sole reason but one of them.

You may want to check the great uptime of nuclear power plants in France.

Or how cheap their new reactor is.

Which renewables are currently decreasing in cost? Inflation is driving prices way up and making the world dependent on China. It takes a half million pounds of mined earth to build one electric car battery. Most windmills take more resource than they actually produce in their life span. Solar panels require mining and a huge percentage are produced in regions of China that use forced labor. So which renewable source or sources are you saying are a “no brainer?”

it's still stupid, though. nuclear is the most efficient form of energy we currently have and shelling it in favor of something that doesn't even have 100% uptime (to say nothing of efficiency) is silly.

Cool, another treatment no one can afford, unless you're rich that is!

Dumbster

I'm really sorry to hear that.

It’s motherfuckers like this who deserve to be billionaires and who should be elected to the highest offices of our land, but never will be because they are too decent. Our society is so fucked.

Fuck cancer man, some bullshit. Why couldn’t it be simple

We're they allowed to return to Israel??

So, the mud wizard won?

Also, there are 100s of types of cancers, and many have subtypes. Even if we find one “cure” it will only work in a small percentage of cancer patients.

You don’t live in Alaska, Canada or Minnesota, do you? Underground parking lots that aren’t heated can actually get colder than the ambient air of the outside. The only thing gained is not having to clear snow and ice from your vehicle in the morning. That’s it.

mRNA is unlocking things so quickly...

Almost like they needed a way to get it to be accepted for the future biotech races.

Everything requires an investment no matter where the power is coming from. Renewables continue to decrease in cost and can generate energy for less than fossil fuels - sometimes a lot less, hence it's a no brainer to build out renewable power sources. They also last for decades, produce much less greenhouse gases over their life cycle, and, in the case of Europe, less money is being sent to a country threatening you with nuclear war. Transitioning to renewables is inevitable. The war is accelerating it.
