In answer to Richard, renewables do provide power, no doubt. But they don't provide reliable power hence the constant need for back up gas and nuclear energy. As to the point concerning the efficacy of renewables, it seems strange that we don't wish to see the correlation between the increase in renewables worldwide and the increase in CO2. Could it be that the mining, construction work and production of windfarms and the necessary minerals, is adding to the production of Co2?
Frankly the entire scheme is extremely depressing. We humans have walked into what can only be described as a dystopian nightmare!
FWIW, solar panels on roofs are fine, taking up valuable land for solar panel farms is quite frankly, ridiculous. And of course there are no farms in Saudi and other Middle Eastern countries so sticking solar panels there would work for most of the time but only in daylight.
