The hundred year solution is nuclear. The thousand year solution is colonizing other planets.
Ultra dense energy has its place, namely where weight and volume are critical like in aerospace. Everything else can deal with not putting more carbon and worse things in the air.
Solar panels lasting for decades here and now, that’s close enough for all practical purposes.
Solar has a proven track record, hydrogen technologies never made it past gospel.
In the spirit of the comic - how is the solar panel made?
short answer: once
Wow, solar panels that last forever? That’s quite the technological achievement…

This is the dumbest fucking argument. I’m sorry but what point do you think you’re making?
Is it imperfect? Yes. Just like ALL OTHER THINGS. Is it a major improvement compared to burning coal? OBVIOUSLY YES.
