@TheMasonK I look at our energy options now, and everything I see I also saw in the educational filmstrip "Our Mr. Sun" from 1956. (Check it out, it's a lot of fun.)
You'd think that 70+ years would be enough time to make these technologies pay off, if they were going to. (I still have hopes for nuclear, myself.)
(But, the truly insane environmentalists are against it. Almost makes you wonder whether our entire energy regulatory apparatus is run by people who aren't so much interested in energy for people alive today, as how to rebuild civilization after a collapse.)
(We'd need as much fossil fuel still in the ground as possible, and nuclear power plants could be incredibly destructive if the industrial civilization around them got wrecked. Maybe that's why every US politician that's supposedly against fossil fuels, is okay with importing massive amounts of other countries' reserves instead of building out our own.)
Oh, and I've kept hearing "peak oil" since I was old enough to start paying attention, decades ago. I stopped hearing it a few years ago, when the fracking revolution expanded our fossil fuel reserves dramatically.
I'm glad that at least you haven't made any arguments that are based on computer models that are utterly inadequate to the task of making accurate predictions of where the climate is going.
