nuclear is one way but there has been negative movement on that front from the start.

2020-03-27 03:28:20 UTC  

Green house's are slowly becoming more prelevant within the farming industral and if we use green house's we can keep production up over the winter time.

2020-03-27 03:28:22 UTC  

Depends on your method. But that aside there is also Solar, Nuclear, and within the next 50 years Fusion is very likely to be viable

2020-03-27 03:28:36 UTC  

Fusion doesn't exist yet...

2020-03-27 03:28:40 UTC  

Solar is quite lucrative but an eye sore.

2020-03-27 03:28:50 UTC  

solar isn't efficient enough

2020-03-27 03:28:59 UTC  

Battery technology has managed to store more than lithium ion in a purely carbon based battery so thats possible

2020-03-27 03:29:19 UTC  

Solar is effecinet but it depends on the place you put it.

2020-03-27 03:29:26 UTC  

Even if we ran on only nuclear we would have enough energy for over a millenium

2020-03-27 03:29:29 UTC  

Not only that again eye sore.

2020-03-27 03:29:48 UTC  

Eye sore vs your civilization dies

2020-03-27 03:29:53 UTC  

gee I wonder what people will pick

2020-03-27 03:30:00 UTC  

maybe we will go to nuclear one day, but while people who remember the Simpsons it's not going to happen

2020-03-27 03:30:06 UTC  

Homer made sure of that.

2020-03-27 03:30:22 UTC  

Tourism and Economy vs destorying potenital tourists attractions hmmmm.

2020-03-27 03:30:36 UTC  

I choose the first.

2020-03-27 03:30:36 UTC  

Tourist attractions dont matter if you have no power

2020-03-27 03:31:07 UTC  

True, but there are other energy sources.

2020-03-27 03:31:12 UTC  

We are an energy based economy. If it came down to solar vs pretty much any facet of that civilization I can tell you what will win

2020-03-27 03:31:40 UTC  

provided we have enough foresight to do it soon enough.

2020-03-27 03:31:56 UTC  

but point still remains. hydrocarbons will not last forever.

2020-03-27 03:32:16 UTC  

Like I said, your looking at a problem that is possibly centuries away

2020-03-27 03:32:40 UTC  

we cant even concieve of what options we will have available by the time we in our current level would have seen an energy crisis

2020-03-27 03:32:41 UTC  

But that is not the arguement. there are other energy sources, and destorying potenital tourism sectors with solar farms.

2020-03-27 03:32:42 UTC  

not if the undeveloped world starts developing.

2020-03-27 03:33:01 UTC  

Wind and current energy are great alternatives.

2020-03-27 03:33:15 UTC  

As Wind turbines can be made to look astecically pleasing.

2020-03-27 03:33:23 UTC  

And current farms are invisable to the naked eye.

2020-03-27 03:33:53 UTC  

Canada man I was talking about solar and since we are moving on here it not really relivant given the efficiency of Nuclear

2020-03-27 03:34:15 UTC  

True.

2020-03-27 03:34:17 UTC  

Thats even assuming we dont nix Fusion within the next 50 years

2020-03-27 03:34:41 UTC  

Nuclear energy is effeicent but the stigma is still there depending on the saftey nets provided.

2020-03-27 03:34:59 UTC  

even if we dont we have the benifit of a few hundred years of hydrocarbons and uranium+low level reactives like thoreum

2020-03-27 03:35:12 UTC  

There is really no point in freaking out over something like peak oil

2020-03-27 03:35:19 UTC  

Mhm.

2020-03-27 03:35:31 UTC  

But we all can agree that telsea is shit right?.

2020-03-27 03:35:49 UTC  

yeah, thats just a hipster money trap

2020-03-27 03:35:55 UTC  

Thank you.

2020-03-27 03:36:16 UTC  

Have had a hard time convinceing normies on the fact telesa sucks.

2020-03-27 03:36:49 UTC  

the real question is how many years of hydrocarbons do we have left? 50?

2020-03-27 03:37:29 UTC  

we boosted our technology dramatically because of cheap easy energy.
