Trust the Science
Even if we were facing imminent doom (we’re not)We can’t get tiger counts right. But yea, global man made climate change.
There are 40% more tigers in the world than previously estimated

Even if we knew what to do (we don’t)
Could we even get it done?
I doubt it. We can’t handle the Flu.
How does one get 22.38 pounds of carbon dioxide from a 7 1/4 pound gallon of diesel??NO ! There are things we don’t even think about and have no way to replace them . Climate change is all about money and one of the biggest money grab scams in history . Inland we don’t have an electrical grid that can handle swaping from fossil fuels , there’s no replacement for coal that supplies our electricity, saying wind farms and solar can is a lie . Off shore ..

Inquiring minds wish to know.
Have we ever done something in the past and not been able to do it as efficiently in the future? There's no real reason we can't do a nuclear build out when we did it 50 years ago. The problem is unnecessarily high safety standards, burdensome regulatory structures, and a culture of paperwork over real work and change billing as lifeblood.

No, it's literally cost and engineers. I was on an energy list for years with a bunch of PhD's and engineers that follow this topic closely. My daughter, also a PhD, is publishing a book soon about the evolution of the nuclear power industry in the American South, and we discuss this often. It's really hard to find enough qualified people to build the number of plants we need in order to meet demand.

I'm not sure there's enough evidence to say it's the government's fault. It's just hard to fund. Manchin wants to maintain coal dependency until he croaks. But nuclear is a potential way out, and natural gas is a big improvement. If nuclear became part of a broad based plan, some plan where government and private industry actually worked together, there'd be more students looking to become nuclear engineers. We need a plan like the New Deal in its size and scope, and lord knows we need to expand our manufacturing base in America. That's a huge reason we've seen an erosion of the middle class in America.I'd say it is hard to find the people because few go into the field since the .gov has made building a nuclear plant damn near impossible.
