...longer available in that coal burning hellhole Germany.
The fact is that there has never been a country that has enough wind or solar garbage trashing vast land areas to embrace stupid fantasies like say, hydrogen.
Every so called "renewable energy" system requires redundant systems, almost always gas in the United States, because we have so many assholes willing to cover the destructive and permanent fracturing of the continental bedrock - through much of our waterr travels.
And then we have assholes who want to waste energy by attempting to store it.
Here's the only fact that matters, the one about which illiterate anti-nukes couldn't care less:
March 27: 420.91 ppm
March 26: 420.95 ppm
March 25: 420.73 ppm
March 24: 420.82 ppm
March 23: 420.75 ppm

Recent Daily Average Mauna Loa CO2
It took 7 years, 10 months, 30 days days since we first saw readings over 400 ppm, in the week beginning 05/26/2013 until the week beginning April 25, 2021 when we first saw values over 420 ppm.
It took 9 years, 1 month, 22 days, to go from the first reading over 380 ppm in the week beginning 04/04/2004 to the aforementioned first time we saw readings over 400 ppm.
It took 11 years, 10 months, 11 days to go from the first time we saw readings over 360 ppm, in the week beginning 5/24/1992.
It took 12 years, 2 months and one day to go from the first time we saw readings over 340 ppm in the week beginning 3/23/1980.
That was four years after we first saw a journal founded for a putative "hydrogen economy," because soothsayers kept predicting there would be so much so called "renewable energy" that we could afford to waste it by storing it by wastefully making a dangerous difficult to handle gas with a critical temperature of 33 K.
We should expect to see our yearly maximum this year at somewhere around 423 ppm.
The assholes still go on cheering for this dangerous fossil fuel marketing scam, basically cheering for fracking, until the gas runs out and, like Germany, we run for the coal mines again. We note that these marketing people don't give a shit about the rise in dangerous natural gas; they're so oblivious they actually cheer for this outcome.
Basically the salespeople for so called "renewable energy" are rather like the sales people for hydrogen inasmuch as they don't give a flying fuck about climate change.
To them the release of trivial harmless amounts of background tritium is a big fucking deal. The death of millions of people each year from air pollution, the rising death toll associated with extreme weather, the failure of crops, floods, droughts, deaths from unlivable wet bulb temperatures doesn't mean shit to them.
Speaking only for myself, I find people with their heads so far up their ass as to hype this kind of stuff disgusting.
