NO THANK YOU.
Valid points made that the news doesn’t highlight. The mines to produce copper, cobalt, lithium, silver and all the other rare earth minerals that are needed do not exist. To meet carbon neutral fantasies will take more natural resource extraction than has happened to date on the planet. How the hell is that green? I don’t see a wind turbine farm powering a wind turbine factory? I don’t see a solar panel field powering a mine to extract all those raw materials. If has to be subsidized that tells me it’s not economically viable. That tax credit is a joke.
