The transportation sector isn't the only one going green. Right now, there's a major shift from natural gas heating towards air conditioning units with heat pumps.

We don't have time to waste on thinking about excuses — our time needs to be spent on thinking of solutions like business models, creative financing, inventions, etc..

I'm not talking excuses. I'm talking people who can afford $30,000 on an EV toy while they dream of peeing on the little people in fly over country as they sit in business class to realize that there is a great pissed off wave of populism rising against your righteousness. You think Joe Manchin is worried about losing his seat in West Virginia or that Trump is the worst that we can get.

People who stand in line to buy the latest SUPREME drop while virtue tweeting on their slave made iPhone need to chill on the righteousness. Saying wee nee to go electric tomorrow? OK, put down the latte and get your ass hundreds of feet in the air running electric lines or else all you have is self-righteousness and no plan.

Where are you people pushing for Thorium reactors? Yeah...all talk from people online when they have the money and expect the little peons to do the sweat work. The masses will own nothing and be happy.

When people assume & generalize, it makes them look bad — you're assuming & applying what some people do, to other people that actually don't do those things, and you're implying that I can afford a $30,000 EV & that I'm righteous (or anyone that can afford one) — you don't know me, I can't afford one, I'm not rich or well-off, or righteous.
Ask, don't assume & consider that everyone does the same bad things that you don't like.  If you're pissed off then do something constructive that'll improve the situation.

For your information:
- I don't drink any kind of coffee & I never follow the masses.  I only drink natural spring water all day.
- To spend time, money, & resources on installing high voltage aerial lines, hundreds of feet in the air, would be stupid for various reasons — microgrids & nanogrids have begun to replace these high voltage lines.  Why would anyone want those dangerous electrical lines ??
- I have plans — you generalized & assumed again — I'm working on a business model & innovative solar PV project to eliminate some burning of fossil fuels.

I'd love for you to come up with SOME SOLUTIONS to improve some of these things that you're complaining about — that would be an outstanding use of your time.  Buckminster Fuller said: "You never change things by fighting existing reality. To change something, build a new model that makes the existing model obsolete."  I'd like to see you transform that pissed off energy into positive action.  Come on dude, I'm rooting for you! We'd all benefit from it.

Peace bro.

No. No, you are not in a higher moral position no matter how you try to weasel out of getting called out for your righteousness. Don't talk smack and then act like the poor little victim. True, I don't know you and have no desire to. I judged you on how you chose to present yourself. Too many soft privileged Americans want to say whatever and never get called out on being wrong.

Thank you for proving my point. With such violence and death in the world, you think that you are better than other people because you have the CHOICE to not consume a particular liquid. Dying infants in Yemen would be happy with toilet water to keep from dying.

It is called engineering a power grid for those who don't live in their gated communities. People who exist that you clearly have no idea about.

Plans? How precious. Elon has vehicles on the street and so do companies in countries like India and Vietnam.

Thorium reactors and nuclear batteries. There. I fulfilled your challenge.

I'd like to see those on my side who want to transition away from fossil fuels to stop being as hubristic as you have been in your reply. That you seem to not understand that you are coming across as condescending is astounding....or you trolling. No one in West Virginia who is facing their livelihood decimated being told to do better as a human by someone claiming to be moral by having the economic choice to choose what safe to drink and readily available fluid to imbibe is going to see or care. We see this already about masks and vaccines despite the statistics, so you think people are open to power sources when there is a war over staying alive?!?!?!?
