--- Quote from: worker201 ---So what? You're not hearing what I am saying. Hydrogen production may not be all that efficient, but it is simple. All you have to do is arc a bolt of electricity through water. The electricity produced by wind and solar DURING THE DAY can be used to make fuel to use during the night. The storage problem will be simple to solve, because our technology can do that - we do it now, just not on a mass level.

To recap - your argument against windfarms as ugly is stupid. I've been to mines of all types, and they are some of the ugliest fucking things on the planet. Seriously, they are nasty. And they fuck up the surrounding environment like CRAZY. You might as well put fucking Manhattan in the middle of the mountains, that's how much garbage and air pollution and noise and loss of habitat they produce. The nastiest ones I have seen are the Anaconda copper mine in Montana, and the Klimaxx molybdenum mine in Colorado. PLUS, the cost of mining is extreme. If you think about all the processes that go into getting any mineral at all out of the ground, they become very expensive and very inefficient. I think mining should be absolutely minimized. No more coal, no more uranium.

My plan contains no harmful byproducts, and can be put into use right now.

 Thats coal mining.

Nuclear Power doesn't use coal.  Nuclear should replace coal.

Kintaro:
I think we should all just drink Cyanide to decrease the amount of energy we are using.

Jenda:
There's a point, Kintaro. There are WAY too many people on the world. I once read that the Earth could sustainably "feed" (that is supply all they need and absorb their waste without being changed herself at all) about one and a half billion people. One quarter of the current pop, 6 G.

Kintaro:
yeah, we should have let SARS spread
