The future is obviously nuclear and renewables, and hopefully fusion by 2100, the only question is how long until we get there? The cost as far as I'm concerned is immaterial. Everything comes with a certain upfront cost. Overtime all those costs will pay off and there will only be ongoing maintenance costs. Same as with anything.
Everything in life has an initial investment. It would be foolish to be against a particular technology or project simply because of its initial costs. What benefit will provide over its lifetime of function?, is the much bigger question.
I would say the cost to lives, world peace, and localized genocidal destruction can hardly be underestimated when discussing fossil fuels and the current US petro-State empire of death and resource theft.
How long will ruthless fossil fuel gangster jefes control their willing human pets in governments around the world???
We are still finding out. The future will be decided one way or another between powers with represent the interests of psychopaths, global thieves, and destroyers, and those who care for this planet and all those who live here.
DC won't be able to remain in its current form in that new world which I see as an absolute win. Genocidal petro-states will have no role in that world. That's pretty awesome for literally EVERYONE fucking else currently alive. Take it from a vet. Switch to renewables, dethrone fossil fuels and you cut at the heart of these remorseless killers. Other resource conflicts may still exist, but I have more faith that they can be won in the interest of the workers and the local country (tho it may not happen overnight).
