I will too, because I'm an engineer, and it's jobs and exports. There's no need to tarnish sound technology just because a few morons supporr it.

There's still hydro and potentially the use of burning plant based fuels, those plant based fuels are only questionably green...
And there's nuclear!
I will dissent from the typical wolfballs party line because I am to some degree an environmentalist.

Yes, yes, yes to all. Plant based fuels displace forests, so its a difficult fuel. Unless we are talking algae, but that's a really limited crop.
I think most people are environmentalists, but define it different. Conservatives are against Net Zero, because they are not convinced historical trend of 1 C warming over 50 years will continue for 100 years, and/or is a big concern, to destroy and rebuild global infrastructure. Sea level rising ? Don't build on the coast. More wildfires, droughts etc ? No convincing proof it will increase. Cheaper to not build in such areas than rejig the whole world on 100% renewable.

There are too many people, and unevenly distributed. We don't want to spread that unevenness around to the parts of the world without a problem, simply let the overpopulous parts of the world face the consequences of their decisions.

The story of the 21st century will be dramatic population decline.
