How many of you have taken the Energy Red Pill and realized that Renewable Energy is going to save the World?

If you listen carefully you can hear the cry of the nuclear shills, maybe we will get a few fascinating specimens to start shilling in this thread itself.

I just had an epiphany today that I could help the world by becoming an environmental engineer. But i can't even give one fuck about material science and there's like 3 courses of materials and a course on statics i would have to take. Maybe in another life.
To be honest, material sciences are kind of key to technological advanced in pretty much every area of science, not just environmental engineering. Only 'Software Engineering' gets a pass.
>Renewable Energy
No such thing.
...
Might be a marketing term, but the source of energy from PVs and Wind Power is not going to run out anytime soon for another few billion years. That is a pretty safe bet for the future.
This wouldn't be renewable either for instance:
Fusion and Breeder reactors.
meanwhile we have enough Uranium and Thorium on the planet to last centuries.
You dense motherfucker, it's vulgar jargon for electricity generated from non-depletable (a.k.a. "renewable") sources.
You know it, stop being a prick.
>material sciences
I don't know anything about the theory about material science and it's more like an umbrella term, but there is still so much future potential in that field.
It's amazing how the properties of certain materials can change so much if you just change the structure a little bit or layer them differently.
>meanwhile we have enough Uranium and Thorium on the planet to last centuries
>last centuries
AHAHAhahahahAHAHahahah. Few centuries? You call that 'renewable'? Sun is going to shine for several BILLION years nigga. All we need is crystalline Silicon (sand) and we are good for that period of time.
We are setting up solar at an average rate of 30,000 from 2016-2021. This is more capacity additions than Coal or Natural gas, which it is now slowly replacing. It is over, PVs and Wind have already won.
