    You know what we do build? Wind turbines, solar (yes, really, massive plants just went up and online), and new mega battery manufacturing plants (30 plus currently). Sodium ion batteries are now being produced and are so good that traditional battery manufacturing is at 50%, they don’t lose capacity at extreme cold temps, they don’t catch on fire in wrecks, they will outlive their owners, they scale up to home and industrial size use cases, they cost less than half traditional batteries. So maybe we fucking focus on transitioning as much as we can to electric for gods sake.
