>1 hour and 20 min long argument in favor of solar and wind energy

Not watching all that. Does he address concerns about the negligible output in comparison to say, nuclear? Or the entire supply chain of lithium-ion batteries?

>Last chapter

Oh I see what you mean. Pretty bad pivot to go from "green energy is good" to "Trump is a fascist, please vote Blue in the midterms, even though politicians ain't shit". I think he means well but underestimates how fucked things are and how burnt out everybody is on politics. Just make the YouTube slop, bro.

@colahpse kinda but no and also ignores that only passenger cars and small vans can realistically run on batteries (even accounting for battery tech improvements) and those already account for only a tiny chunk of emissions

he does mention corn grown for gas as part of solution to low output- let's just replace corn with solar panels. while getting rid of ethanol additives would be good, he conveniently ignores the Energy Policy Act 2005 had bipartisan support and the evil republican capitalist critics were right about it

he does talk about battery supply chains and does address some points but not very deeply and ends it with "Once you build enough you just recycle"
