Oil vs. renewable energy analogy
Posted by bruni

Oil is like the road system we have, that may have some potholes and ruts, but with some capital investment, we can improve them and they will serve our needs for now and the future. "Renewable Energy" is like Lyle Lanley selling the monorail system to the people of springfield. a lot of money invested in unknown technology that may or may not work or may or may not be better than what we already have/could have invested in. I find when people make analogies in an argument it’s because they want to obscure the facts. |
